[libvirt] [PATCH 02/17] nwfilter: Fix possible corruption on failure path during LoadConfig

If the virNWFilterSaveConfig in virNWFilterObjListLoadConfig, then jumping
to the error label would free the @def owned by the object, but the object
is still on the list.

Fix this by following proper procedure to clear @def and create a new
variable @objdef to handle the object's def after successful assignment.
