[libvirt] [PATCH 4/4] storage: Handle failure from refreshVol

In an NFS root-squash environment it was possible that if the just
created volume from XML wasn't properly created with the right
uid/gid and/or mode, then the followup refreshVol will fail to open
the volume in order to get the allocation/capacity values. This would
leave the volume still on the server and cause a libvirtd crash because
'voldef' would be in the pool list, but the cleanup code would free it.
