Here I agree with Peter, for this series I would use VIR_FREE() where
it's possible and only for glib objects we can use g_autoptr.

But eventually I would like to switch to g_autofree and friends in order
to eliminate our specific helpers in favor of glib helpers.

This also brings a question if we should keep our wrappers for glib or
use it directly.  For example the string functions that we have.
