This doesn't feel thread safe; although I'm not sure how to make it so.
If the migration finishes just after we check the state but before the
shutdown we end up using a bogus QEMUFile*
Making all the places that close a QEMUFile* set hte pointer Null before
they do the close doesn't help because you still race with that.

(The race is small, but still)
