We don't do automatic memory management, this is not Java or
Python or
anything 

You should always free your own resources, however the
final
avahi_client_free() will also free all attached objects,
like
browsers, resolvers, entry groups. Freeing the client will
do the big
clean up. OTOH this means that you are not supposed to use
any of the
attached objects after calling avahi_client_free()!
