I must admit I've never studied how we do qemu <-> spice ABI
compatibility too closely. But I believe only bumping the server
version is not enough.

This bump will allow qemu to detect compile time it is dealing with
a newer server, but what if we've an old qemu running with the new
server with the above addition to QXLInterface ?

Then the new code will do:

But this checks for qif->set_client_capabilities, which was not there in the old
QXLInterface struct definition which the old qemu used while compiling, so the check will
point to memory *beyond* the end of the QXLInterface struct (as seen / defined by the older
qemu binary)...
