While looking at this, I discovered more problems:

1. the same problem that you fixed for xref, also exists in occur:
   it doesn't set the right current-buffer for next-error.

2. also typing RET in *Occur* doesn't set next-error-last-buffer.
   Maybe we need to set it in occur-mode-goto-occurrence (but not in 
occur-next-error)

3. typing RET in *xref* should set next-error-last-buffer as well

4. Maybe these 2 lines needed to be added also to xref--xref-buffer-mode:

        (setq next-error-last-buffer buffer)
        (setq-default next-error-last-buffer buffer)

like in next-error to set both buffer-local and global values.
