[libvirt] [PATCH] Allocate priv->vioserialaddrs unconditionally

[Ján Tomko]

When attempting to hotplug a virtio-serial console to a domain
that had no virtio-serial controllers (not even those that
are added by libvirt when some devices need them) at daemon startup,
report a user-friendly error:

error: Failed to attach device from console.xml
error: internal error: no virtio-serial controllers are available

instead of crashing the daemon:

Process terminating with default action of signal 11 (SIGSEGV): dumping core
 Access not within mapped region at address 0x8
   at 0x531028F: virDomainVirtioSerialAddrNext (domain_addr.c:916)

   by 0x1BCD5E: qemuDomainAttachDeviceFlags (qemu_driver.c:8743)

Introduced in v1.2.14-30-g5903378.
