You introduced this ID so you should remember.
It starts from 0, just this is not the first registration, the other displays
were registered to other QXL instances.
This was introduced for virtio-gpu to be able to register the different
outputs to different QXL instances so to have
first output/display:
spice_qxl_set_device_info(instance1, path1, 0, 1);
second:
spice_qxl_set_device_info(instance2, path1, 1, 1);
third:
spice_qxl_set_device_info(instance3, path1, 2, 1);
So as you can see device_display_id start from 0 but does not mean
is always 0 for every call.
