I've observed this failed assertion:
libxl_event.c:2057: libxl__ao_inprogress_gc: Assertion `ao' failed.

AFAICT, this is happening in qmp_proxy_spawn_outcome where
sdss->qmp_proxy_spawn.ao is NULL.

The out label of spawn_stub_launch_dm calls qmp_proxy_spawn_outcome, but
it is only in the success path that sdss->qmp_proxy_spawn.ao gets set to
the current ao.  Move the setting earlier to have an ao in all paths
through the function.

Another option would be to make spawn_stub_launch_dm call
spawn_stubdom_pvqemu_cb on error.  This avoids needing to set
sdss->qmp_proxy_spawn.ao, but it makes more paths through the code.

I don't think that's correct. I feels like `sdss->qmp_proxy_spawn`
doesn't need to be initialised before calling spawn_qmp_proxy().

Also `qmp_proxy_spawn.ao` only need to be set before calling
libxl__spawn_spawn(), so at the same time as the rest of the
initialisation of `qmp_proxy_spawn` in spawn_qmp_proxy().


Next, about the uninitialized `ao` field:
- qmp_proxy_spawn_outcome() shouldn't use `qmp_proxy_spawn.ao`, but
  instead it should use the one available in `sdss`, that is
  `sdss->dm.spawn.ao` (The one that libxl__spawn_stub_dm() or
  spawn_stub_launch_dm() is using).
- And spawn_qmp_proxy() should also use `sdss->dm.spawn.ao` for
  STATE_AO_GC() as I don't think spawn_qmp_proxy() can expect
  `qmp_proxy_spawn` to be initialised as that's the function that
  initialise it.


Thanks,

That all sounds good.  Thanks, Anthony.
