Subject: rpc: ensure temporary GSource is removed from client event loop

Users are seeing periodic segfaults from libvirt client apps,
especially thread heavy ones like virt-manager. A typical
stack trace would end up in the virNetClientIOEventFD method,
with illegal access to stale stack data. eg

The root cause is a bad assumption in the virNetClientIOEventLoop
method. This method is run by whichever thread currently owns the
buck, and is responsible for handling I/O. Inside a for(;;) loop,
this method creates a temporary GSource, adds it to the event loop
and runs g_main_loop_run(). When I/O is ready, the GSource callback
(virNetClientIOEventFD) will fire and call g_main_loop_quit(), and
return G_SOURCE_REMOVE which results in the temporary GSource being
destroyed. A g_autoptr() will then remove the last reference.
What was overlooked, is that a second thread can come along and
while it can't enter virNetClientIOEventLoop, it will register an
idle source that uses virNetClientIOWakeup to interrupt the
original thread's 'g_main_loop_run' call. When this happens the
virNetClientIOEventFD callback never runs, and so the temporary
GSource is not destroyed. The g_autoptr() will remove a reference,
but by virtue of still being attached to the event context, there
is an extra reference held causing GSource to be leaked. The
next time 'g_main_loop_run' is called, the original GSource will
trigger its callback, and access data that was allocated on the
stack by the previous thread, and likely SEGV.
To solve this, the thread calling 'g_main_loop_run' must call
g_source_destroy, immediately upon return, to guarantee that
the temporary GSource is removed.
