[libvirt] [PATCH] qemu: Report error if per-VM directory cannot be created

Commit f1f68ca33433 did not report an error if virFileMakePath()
returned -1.  Well, who would've guessed function with name starting
with 'vir' sets an errno instead of reporting an error the libvirt way.
Anyway, let's fix it, so the output changes from:

  $ virsh start arm
  error: Failed to start domain arm
  error: An error occurred, but the cause is unknown

to:

  $ virsh start arm
  error: Failed to start domain arm
  error: Cannot create directory '/var/lib/libvirt/qemu/domain-arm': Not
  a directory
