This patch particularly scares me because there are so many more paths
that could now call virStreamAbort. Yes, I know that's the point, but
nonetheless it's large leap of faith to only calling Abort as a result
of some Send/Recv callback failure to calling Abort for the ancillary
stuff surrounding or supporting those calls as well.

Would there be a chance of multiple callers to virStreamAbort?

It'd be nice if there were any other opinions on this. I'd lean towards
saying looks good, but I'm also interested if there's any other opposing
opinions or concerns.
