[libvirt] [PATCH] lxc: fix 2 issue around cpuset

There are two bugs in this function:

1. cannot start a vm with cpuset but without numatune settings

 # virsh -c lxc:/// start helloworld
 error: Failed to start domain helloworld
 error: internal error: guest failed to start: Invalid value '1-3' for 'cpuset.mems': Invalid argument

we don't free &mask after use it for virCgroupSetCpusetCpus() and
then virDomainNumatuneMaybeFormatNodeset() do not get a new &mask,
then we use it in virCgroupSetCpusetMems().

2. when start a lxc with numatune memory mode not strict

 # virsh -c lxc:/// start helloworld
 error: Failed to start domain helloworld
 error: internal error: guest failed to start: Unknown failure in libvirt_lxc startup

We shouldn't set anything in cpuset.mems for these mode.
