[Libguestfs] [PATCH libnbd v3 1/2] lib: Implement closure lifetimes.

Previously closures had a crude flag which tells if they are
persistent or transient.  Transient closures (flag = false) last for
the lifetime of the currently called libnbd function.  Persistent
closures had an indefinite lifetime which could last for as long as
the handle.  In language bindings handling persistent closures was
wasteful as we needed to register a "close callback" to free the
closure when the handle is closed.  But if you had submitted thousands
of asynchronous commands you would end up registering thousands of
close callbacks.

We actually have far more information about the lifetime of closures.
We know precisely when they will no longer be needed by the library.
Callers can use this information to free up associated user data
earlier.  In particular in language bindings we can remove roots /
decrement reference counts at the right place to free the closure,
without waiting for the handle to be closed.

The solution to this is to introduce the concept of a closure
lifetime.  The callback is called with an extra valid_flag parameter
which is a bitmap containing LIBNBD_CALLBACK_VALID and/or
LIBNBD_CALLBACK_FREE.  LIBNBD_CALLBACK_VALID corresponds to a normal
call of the callback function by the library.  After the library has
finished with the callback (declaring that this callback will never be
needed or called again), it is called once more with
valid_flag == LIBNBD_CALLBACK_FREE.

(Note it is also possible for the library to call the callback with
valid_flag == LIBNBD_CALLBACK_VALID|LIBNBD_CALLBACK_FREE, meaning it's the
last valid call.)

As an example, nbd_set_debug_callback registers a debug closure which
is saved in the handle.  The closure is freed either when
nbd_set_debug_callback is called again, or the handle is closed.  The
sequence of events would look like this:

  Caller                 Callback

  nbd_set_debug_callback

                         # a new debug_fn is registered
  calls any nbd function debug_fn (valid_flag == VALID)
                         debug_fn (valid_flag == VALID)
                         debug_fn (valid_flag == VALID)
                         ...

  nbd_set_debug_callback
                         # the old debug_fn is freed
                         debug_fn (valid_flag == FREE)

                         # the new debug_fn is called
  calls any nbd function debug_fn (valid_flag == VALID)
                         debug_fn (valid_flag == VALID)

                         # the second debug_fn is freed
  nbd_close              debug_fn (valid_flag == FREE)

An example of a debug_fn written by a caller would be:

 int my_debug_fn (int valid_flag, void *user_data,
                  const char *context, const char *msg)
 {
   if (valid_flag & LIBNBD_CALLBACK_VALID) {
     printf ("context = %s, msg = %s\n", context, msg);
   }
   if (valid_flag & LIBNBD_CALLBACK_FREE) {
     /* If you need to free something, for example: */
     free (user_data);
   }
   return 0;
 }
