[libvirt] [PATCH] esx: drop dead code to silence Coverity

Coverity detected that the only way to get to the cleanup label
is if objectSpec had been successfully allocated, so the null
check was dead code.

* src/esx/esx_vi.c (esxVI_LookupObjectContentByType): Drop
redundant null check.

I'll wait for a review on this one.
