Also, document this functionality more prominently, including with a reference from sd_event_exit(). This is mostly to make things complete, as previously we supported NULL callbacks only in _add_time() and _add_signal(). However, I think this makes snese for IO event sources too (think: when some fd such as a pipe end sees SIGHUP or so, exit), as well as defer or post event sources (i.e. exit once we got nothing else to do). This also adds support for inotify event sources, simply to complete things (I can't see the immediate use, but maybe someone else comes up with it). The only event source type that doesn't allow callback=NULL now are exit callbacks, but for them they make little sense, as the event loop is exiting then anyway.
