Or have the virConnectDomainEventRegister method take an extra parameter
which is a callback    void (*freefunc)(void*). libvirt would just invoke
that to free the opaque data chunk.

I think we need a similar thing with the event loops APIs for timers
and file handle watches, to make it easier to free the opaque data
blob they have.
