The 'cb' and 'jobDataPrivateCb' pointers are stored in the job object
but made point to the memory owned by the virDomainXMLOption struct in
the callers.
Since the 'virdomainjob' module isn't in control the lifetime of the
virDomainXMLOption, which in some cases is freed before the domain job
data, freed memory would be dereferenced in some cases.
Copy the structs from virDomainXMLOption to ensure the lifetime. This is
possible since the callback functions are immutable.

I thought all of xmlopt will have a larger lifetime than the jobs, but
that's not true in all drivers. Even though it could be handled
elsewhere, or in a different fashion (reference counting xmlopt, etc.)
I think this is the cleanest and safest anyway. Maybe copying the whole
virDomainJobObjConfig would make a bit more sense... Anyway,

No objection to this patch for the immediate fix, but overall it
feels dirty to be stealing pointers from the xmlopt object.
virDomainXMLOption is a virObject instance, so IMHO anywhere that
needs the callbacks, should just keep a reference on the whole
virDomainXMLOption object, instead of grabbing callback pointers
from inside it and then passing them around.

virDomainXMLOption is a virObject instance, so IMHO anywhere that
needs the callbacks, should just keep a reference on the whole
virDomainXMLOption object, instead of grabbing callback pointers
from inside it and then passing them around.
The only inconvenient thing here is that virDomainXMLOption is not
available in virdomainjob.h due to the dependancy order of header files.
And that is something I don't really fancy refactoring. Kristina can do
that as the original author.

virDomainJobObjConfig could be AFAIK, and would make more sense. Again,
not really asking you to do it.
Adding Kristina to Cc for the sake of completeness.
