Hi,
There is no specific reason. Both ways work equally well in preventing
qemu from hanging. shutdown() for tls-channel just makes it abort a
little sooner (by not attempting to encrypt and send data anymore).

I don't lean either way. I guess registering it on the tls-channel
makes is a bit more explicit and clearer.

What do you think?
