You pointed out that in the protocol, the id is 8 bits, so I'd change to
worker->qxl->id & 0xff while at it.

Note that with SPICE_STAT_NODE_NAME_MAX (which is 20), you can
still get snprintf to misbehave:
"display[]" is 9 bytes
%d may need 11 bytes to be printed (if id is less than (unsigned int)-4000000000)
so we'd be need 20 bytes in the buffer plus the trailing \0.
