Daniel P. Berrangé 2b5f925112 remote: fix double free of migration params on error
The remote_*_args methods will generally borrow pointers
passed in the caller, so should not be freed.

On failure of the virTypedParamsSerialize method, however,
xdr_free was being called. This is presumably because it
was thought that the params may have been partially
serialized and need cleaning up. This is incorrect, as
virTypedParamsSerialize takes care to cleanup partially
serialized data. This xdr_free call would lead to free'ing
the borrowed cookie pointers, which would be a double free.

Libvirt API for virtualization

Libvirt provides a portable, long term stable C API for managing the virtualization technologies provided by many operating systems. It includes support for QEMU, KVM, Xen, LXC, bhyve, Virtuozzo, VMware vCenter and ESX, VMware Desktop, Hyper-V, VirtualBox and the POWER Hypervisor.

For some of these hypervisors, it provides a stateful management daemon which runs on the virtualization host allowing access to the API both by non-privileged local users and remote users.

Layered packages provide bindings of the libvirt C API into other languages including Python, Perl, PHP, Go, Java, OCaml, as well as mappings into object systems such as GObject, CIM and SNMP.
