    libxl: Fix segfault in device_model_spawn_outcome
    
    libxl__spawn_qdisk_backend() explicitly sets guest_config to NULL when
    starting QEMU (the usual launch through libxl__spawn_local_dm() has a
    guest_config though).
    
    Bail early on a NULL guest_config/d_config.  This skips the QMP queries
    for chardevs and VNC, but this xenpv QEMU instance isn't expected to
    provide those - only qdisk (or 9pfs backends after an upcoming change).
