[libvirt] [PATCH] domain: Fix crash if trying to live update disk <serial>

If you pass <disk><serial> XML to UpdateDevice, and the original device
didn't have a <serial> block, libvirtd crashes trying to read the original
NULL serial string.

Use _NULLABLE string comparisons to avoid the crash. A couple other
properties needed the change too.
