Hi Marc-André,
Please review the updated code and let me know if there is anything else left
to fix:
This update fixes:
✅ Runtime Stability: QEMU starts and runs without crashes
✅ Async Handling: Proper async clipboard request tracking
✅ Error Handling: Comprehensive SDL error reporting
✅ Memory Management: Correct use of g_autofree and proper cleanup
✅ QEMU Integration: Full integration with QEMU's clipboard subsystem:
