util/error: Fix use-after-free errors reported by Coverity

Browse Source 
Fix use-after-free errors in the code path that called error_handle(). A
call to error_handle() will now either free the passed Error 'err' or
assign it to '*errp' if '*errp' is currently NULL. This ensures that 'err'
either has been freed or is assigned to '*errp' if this function returns.
Adjust the two callers of this function to not assign the 'err' to '*errp'
themselves, since this is now handled by error_handle().

Fixes: commit 3ffef1a55c ("error: add global &error_warn destination")
