[libvirt] [PATCH 1/6] VSMS: Coverity cleanups

A new version of Coverity found a number of issues:

parse_ip_address(): FORWARD_NULL
  - Benign issue regarding how 'tmp_ip' was compared against NULL for
    the IPv6 processing and then used blindly later when strdup()'ing
    into *ip. Rather than use NULL check, compare against return of 1
    or more which indicates that something is there

update_system_settings(): RESOURCE_LEAK
  - The 'uuid' value was being leaked if strdup()'d.  Also rather than
    strdup()'g and strdup()'d value and risking failure, just assign the
    initially strdup()'d value and reinitialize uuid to NULL

fv_vssd_to_domain(): USE_AFTER_FREE
  - The domain->os_info.fv.arch is free()'d only to be potentially
    strdup()'d after processing the 'cu_get_str_prop()' for "Arch".
    The complaint was that it was possible to not strdup() a new value
    and thus possible to pass a free()'d value to get_default_machine().
    Passing a NULL is not an issue as that is checked.

    Additionally found by inspection, 'val' was not initialized to NULL,
    so the setting of os_info.fv.arch may not be what was expected. Also,
    after processing "Arch" it was not reinitialized to NULL so its
    contents could potentially have been saved in os_info.fv.machine.
