This implies treating the video_codecs GArray as an immutable object. 
The object we pass through the dispatch message is the one 
reds_set_video_codecs() modifies so this should be changed there too. 
That could work. Is there a way to indicate we don't want this GArray to 
be modified?

Done.

Yes, they may prefer to split this up at the XML level. Do you know of 
settings where libvirt queries whether certain values are supported or 
not?
