"instead of having a switch on the message type in
red_qxl_async_complete, this commit moves the message-specific behaviour
to the callers, which allows us to store the cookie directly in RedWorkerMessageAsync
rather than needing an intermediate AsyncCommand structure"

(though I guess we could have exactly the same explanation for moving
both the cookie and the message type to RedWorkerMessageAsync).

I would add a comment to the functions that you made public to mention
that they are being called from the worker thread.

Looks good otherwise,
