[libvirt] [PATCH] network: bridge: Avoid memory leak from networkBuildDhcpDaemonCommandLine

If the leasehelper_path couldn't be found the code would leak the
freshly constructed command structure. Re-arrange code to avoid the
problem.

Found by coverity, broken by baafe668fa56767c031468ccd5df3e62eaa11370.
