qemuDomainRemoveInactive calls virDomainObjListRemove, which in this
case is holding the last remaining reference to the domain.
qemuDomainRemoveInactive then calls qemuDomainObjEndJob, but the domain
object has been freed and poisoned by then.
This patch bumps the domain's refcount until qemuDomainRemoveInactive
has completed. We also ensure qemuProcessAutoDestroy does not return the
domain to virCloseCallbacksRun to be unlocked in this case. There is
similar logic in bhyveProcessAutoDestroy and lxcProcessAutoDestroy
(which call virDomainObjListRemove directly).
Please ignore this. I've got a few other fixes related to cancelled VM
migrations, so I'll send through all in one patch series.
