Using error_is_set(ERRP) to find out whether a function failed is either wrong, fragile, or unnecessarily opaque. It's wrong when ERRP may be null, because errors go undetected when it is. It's fragile when proving ERRP non-null involves a non-local argument. Else, it's unnecessarily opaque (see commit 84d18f0). I guess the error_is_set(errp) in the ObjectProperty set() methods are merely fragile right now, because I can't find a call chain that passes a null errp argument. Make the code more robust and more obviously correct: receive the error in a local variable, then propagate it through the parameter.
