If the QIOChannelWebsock object is freed while it is waiting to
complete a handshake, a GSource is leaked. This can lead to the
callback firing later on and triggering a use-after-free in the
use of the channel. This was observed in the VNC server with the
following trace from valgrind:

The above can be reproduced by launching QEMU with
$ qemu-system-x86_64 -vnc localhost:0,websocket=5700
and then repeatedly running:
for i in {1..100}; do
(echo -n "GET / HTTP/1.1" && sleep 0.05) | nc -w 1 localhost 5700 &
done
