[libvirt] [PATCH v3 2/6] virConnectRegisterCloseCallback: Cleanup 'opaque' if there is no connectRegisterCloseCallback

The commit 'close callback: move it to driver' (88f09b75eb99) moved
the responsibility for the close callback to the driver. But if the
driver doesn't support the connectRegisterCloseCallback API this
function does nothing, even no unsupported error report. This behavior
may lead to problems, for example memory leaks, as the caller cannot
differentiate whether the close callback was 'really' registered or
not.

Therefore call directly @freecb if the connectRegisterCloseCallback
API is not supported by the driver used by the connection.
