[libvirt] [PATCH] storage_backend.c: assure clang that inputvol can't be NULL

clang was complaining that a NULL inputvol would be dereferenced
in that "could not open..." diagnostic.

Since the two sole callers of this function are careful
to call it only when inputvol is non-NULL, this is a good
case for giving the parameter the nonnull attribute:

Subject: [PATCH] storage_backend.c: assure clang that inputvol can't be NULL

* src/storage_backend.c (virStorageBackendCopyToFD): Declare inputvol
parameter to be "nonnull".
Remove test for non-NULL inputvol.  Both callers ensure it's non-NULL.
