ACK.

Thanks to patch 2/6, you could now technically close the connection
first, then unregister the callback, and the reference held by the
callback will ensure that the connection lives long enough to let that
work even after things were "closed".  Most likely to happen if things
are multithreaded, where one thread is unregistering while another
thread is closing the connection.  But given that earlier libvirt had
problems, we obviously don't want to advertise that "backwards" approach
to cleanup.
