Could you rename the second arg as "q_r" or "q_out" ?

Same here.

Could we prefix them all with "libxl_xs_quota_" ? I would rather that we
only use "xs_quota" or "xsquota".

Could you use "_list" as a suffix instead? It's a bit confusing to have
the word "set" as a double meaning, with a _set() function that takes a
set.

We don't init `rc` variable in libxl function. Set `rc` to 0 just before
the "out" label.

It feels wrong to make changes to the output argument on error, if we
can avoid it. And here, I don't see any reason to change `q`.

Can you call libxl_xs_quota_set_init() first? As you call _dispose()
later.

Could you store the return value of `func()` in `ok`, and test `ok` in the
if instead?

This can be `goto out` once free(names) is moved to the out label.

Could you do that after the "out" label? And init `names` to NULL.

It would be better to write `goto out` instead.
