[libvirt] [PATCHv2] virsh: plug memory leaks on failure path

Leaks are introduced in commit 1cf0e3d and fe383bb.

Fixing memory leaks, in addition, the patch also fixs a potential missing 
return value issue in 'if (from)' statement, without the fixing, although 
the programming met a error, the subsequent codes will be executed 
continually.  

* tools/virsh.c (cmdSnapshotList): fix memory leaks and missing return value.

* How to reproduce?

% virsh snapshot-list <domain> --parent --roots
% virsh snapshot-list <domain> --parent --tree
% virsh snapshot-list <domain> --roots --tree

actual result:
error: --parent and --roots are mutually exclusive
error: Failed to disconnect from the hypervisor, 1 leaked reference(s)

error: --parent and --tree are mutually exclusive
error: Failed to disconnect from the hypervisor, 1 leaked reference(s)

error: --roots and --tree are mutually exclusive
error: Failed to disconnect from the hypervisor, 1 leaked reference(s)

......

% virsh snapshot-create-as <domain> --name "hello"
% virsh snapshot-create-as <domain> --name "libvirt"
% virsh snapshot-list <domain> --roots --from "hello"

actual result:
error: --roots and --from are mutually exclusive
