[libvirt] [PATCH] vbox: Fix passing an empty IMedium* array to IMachine::Delete

[Matthias Bolte <matthias bolte googlemail com>]

vboxArray is not castable to a COM item type. vboxArray is a
wrapper around the XPCOM and MSCOM specific array handling.

In this case we can avoid passing NULL as an empty array to
IMachine::Delete by passing a dummy IMedium* array with a single
NULL item.

Jean-Baptiste, I can not reproduce the assertion you mentioned, or
I don't know where to look for it. So could you verify that is patch
avoids this assertion?
