You are saying that I should be more careful when a->type == b->type.

Indeed, in that case, we might be changing the order of which encoder
will be used (nowadays only one codec has multiple encoders, spice:mjpeg
and gstreamer:mjpeg).

This function was reworked to remove the priority part (you can see that
I indeed was careful enough to have a->priority == b->priority before,
but not here [0]) so, good catch :)

I'll improve it.

I had some issues with it in the past, don't recall what was it so let's
try again and see if all is good.

I'll play with that too but I don't expect us to be supporting more then
10 video codecs in the next few years. (/me saves this email to see how
wrong I was)

I only use localized strings on errors to users. Never thought about it
in the info domain. Still, I'll lower this to a debug message as per
Frediano suggestion.

DisplayChannelClient does.

There are two possibilities around changing the order of video-codecs
for encoding:

1-) Client sending the SPICE_MSGC_DISPLAY_PREFERRED_VIDEO_CODEC_TYPE
message, which is handled by DisplayChannelClient;
2-) Host (admin) calls spice_server_set_video_codecs() which end up
updating all DisplayChannels video-codecs in the function above. In this
case, DisplayChannelClient needs to know about it in order to sort again
the GArray based on both client-side and host-side order of preference.

Here it is still interesting to have this notification as the host might
disable/enable video-codec, but the host-side preference code is ongoing
discussion [1]. I plan to implement Frediano's suggestions this week.

(Yes, the discussion end-up happening in a different thread then the RFC
[2] one!)
