qdev: Fix crash in array property getter

Passing an uninitialised list to visit_start_list() happens to work for
the QObject output visitor because it treats the pointer as an opaque
value and never dereferences it, but the string output visitor expects a
valid list to check if it has more than one element.

The existing code crashes with the string output visitor if the
uninitialised value is non-NULL. Passing an explicit NULL would fix the
crash, but still result in wrong output.

Rework get_prop_array() so that it conforms to the expectations that the
string output visitor has. This includes building a real list first and
using visit_next_list() to iterate it.
