Since this has been sitting for a bit, I'll poke the bear, but also CC
Peter since he reviewed V1 and had some specific concerns...

Usage of 'goto' is a libvirt coding convention, even though perhaps not
a convention of all programming styles. I think use of goto here should
be kept (here and other places that follow in this function).

If you feel strongly about usage of break vs. goto, then this should be
a two patch series - the first to convert "goto" usage into "break"
usage and the second to resolve the issue of continuing with the timeout
logic even if both callbacks could not be registered.

"If the block job hits 100%, wait a little while for a possible event
from libvirt unless both callbacks could not be registered in order to
synthesize our own READY event"

Existing... Not part of this change per se; however, if we're printing
and "info.end == info.cur", then we'll already printed 100% 'retries'
times if one of the callbacks does exist...
