[libvirt] [PATCH 05/22] pci: make virPCIDeviceDetach consistent in behavior

virPCIDeviceDetach would previously sometimes consume the input device
object (to put it on the inactive list) and sometimes not. Avoiding
memory leaks required checking beforehand to see if the device was
already on the list, and freeing the device object in the caller only
if there wasn't already an identical object on the inactive list.

This patch makes it consistent - virPCIDeviceDetach will *never*
consume the input virPCIDevice object; if it needs to put one on the
inactive list, it will create a copy and put *that* on the list. This
way the caller knows that it is always their responsibility to free
the device object they created.
