Let me clarify this, I think there are some pending issues/comments

1) signal and callback
This patch change the callback and use a glib signal instead. I don't
like the dynamic binding and I prefer previous static one but Christophe
and Jonathon prefer the signal (which is dynamic) and we are moving to
the unsafe world of glib so it's not a problem

2) reasoning
Moving from callback to signal does not remove the dependency, the
dependency is just changed to a signal, specifically
" this allows to remove some coupling between Reds and RedCharDeviceVDIPort"
no, you just changed char_dev_class->on_free_self_token assignment
to a g_signal_connect.
"With a signal, RedCharDeviceVDIPort does not have to do anything special"
no, RedCharDeviceVDIPort has to register a signal and emit it.
I would just change the comment to

  It's more natural to do things this way with glib.
  With a signal Reds can just connect to the signal it's interested in.

this was my strong argument

3) why the single callback was changed to multiple signals?
(this was raised by Jonathon)
