libxc: Do not segfault if (e.g.) switch_qemu_logdirty fails

In xc_domain_save the local variable `ob' is initialised to NULL.
There are then various startup actions.  Some of these `goto out' on
failure; for example the call to callbacks->switch_qemu_logdirty on
l.978.  However, out is used both by success and error paths.  So it
attempts (l.2043) to flush the current output buffer.  If ob has not
yet been assigned a non-NULL value, this segfaults.  So make the call
to outbuf_flush conditional on ob.
