[PATCH for 8.5.0] qemu_hotplug: Don't skip cleanup in qemuDomainAttachNetDevice()

Introduced in v8.4.0-rc1~183 but the first real problem
introduced in v8.4.0-rc1~170, there's a
qemuBuildInterfaceConnect() call inside of
qemuDomainAttachNetDevice(). If the former fails, then the
function is immediately returned from instead of jumping onto the
cleanup label. This is crucial, because at this point the domain
definition contains 'borrowed' net definition, which is then
freed, since an error was met. The domain definition is then left
with a dangling pointer which leads to all sorts of different
crashes.
