qdev: fix use-after-free in the error path of qdev_init_nofail
From Markus:
Before:
$ qemu-system-x86_64 -display none -drive if=ide
qemu-system-x86_64: Device needs media, but drive is empty
qemu-system-x86_64: Initialization of device ide-hd failed
[Exit 1 ]
After:
$ qemu-system-x86_64 -display none -drive if=ide
qemu-system-x86_64: Device needs media, but drive is empty
Segmentation fault (core dumped)
[Exit 139 (SIGSEGV)]
This error always existed as qdev_init() frees the object. But QOM
goes a bit further and purposefully sets the class pointer to NULL to
help find use-after-free. It worked :-)
