[libvirt] [PATCH] qemu: silence clang false positives

Clang 2.8 wasn't quite able to follow that persistentDef was
assigned earlier if (flags & VIR_DOMAIN_MEM_CONFIG) is true.
Silence this false positive, to make clang analysis easier to use.

* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c (qemudDomainSetMemoryFlags): Add an
annotation to silence clang's claim of a NULL dereference.
---

I'm pushing this under the trivial rule - sa_assert is a no-op in
normal compilation, so this can't have any effect on the end
executable, but makes the rest of my clang analysis easier.
