not sure that's it's correct
qdict_get_try_str() returns the reference to a string within
the QDict, so caller who provided qdict should take care of
freeing it.

If type is not NULL, it will go to the else branch, type re-assign immediately.
And it's aslo in the scope, so the string within the QDict will not be freed.

This is correct, but two lines later we have "type = g_strdup(type)".
IOW, the code is storing both a const and non-const string in the
same variable which is gross.
So there's definitely a leak, but this is also not the right way
to fix it.
To fix it, notice that g_strdup says
"Duplicates a string. If str is NULL it returns NULL. The
returned string should be freed with g_free() when no longer
needed."
IOW, instead of
const char *type;
type = qdict_get_try_str(qdict, "qom-type");
if (!type) {
error_setg(errp, QERR_MISSING_PARAMETER, "qom-type");
return;
} else {
type = g_strdup(type);
qdict_del(qdict, "qom-type");
}
we want
g_autofree char *type = NULL;
type = g_strdup(qdict_get_try_str(qdict, "qom-type"));
if (!type) {
error_setg(errp, QERR_MISSING_PARAMETER, "qom-type");
return;
}
qdict_del(qdict, "qom-type");
