qemu-option: Fix qemu_opts_set_defaults() for corner cases



Commit 4f6dd9af changed the initialization of opts in opts_parse() to
this:

    if (defaults) {
        if (!id && !QTAILQ_EMPTY(&list->head)) {
            opts = qemu_opts_find(list, NULL);
        } else {
            opts = qemu_opts_create(list, id, 0);
        }
    } else {
        opts = qemu_opts_create(list, id, 1);
    }

Same as before for !defaults.

If defaults is true, and params has no ID, and options exist, we use
the first assignment.  It sets opts to null if all options have an ID.
opts_parse() then returns null.  qemu_opts_set_defaults() asserts the
value is non-null.  It's the only caller that passes true for
defaults.

To reproduce, try "-M xenpv -machine id=foo" (yes, "id=foo" is silly,
but it shouldn't crash).

I believe the function attempts to do the following:

    If options don't yet exist, create new options
    Else, if defaults, modify the existing options
    Else, if list->merge_lists, modify the existing options
    Else, fail

A straightforward call of qemu_opts_create() does exactly that.
