hw/scsi/vhost-scsi: Fix missing ERRP_GUARD() for error_prepend()

Browse Source 
As the comment in qapi/error, passing @errp to error_prepend() requires
ERRP_GUARD():

* = Why, when and how to use ERRP_GUARD() =
*
* Without ERRP_GUARD(), use of the @errp parameter is restricted:
...
* - It should not be passed to error_prepend(), error_vprepend() or
*   error_append_hint(), because that doesn't work with &error_fatal.
* ERRP_GUARD() lifts these restrictions.
*
* To use ERRP_GUARD(), add it right at the beginning of the function.
* @errp can then be used without worrying about the argument being
* NULL or &error_fatal.

ERRP_GUARD() could avoid the case when @errp is &error_fatal, the user
can't see this additional information, because exit() happens in
error_setg earlier than information is added [1].

The vhost_scsi_realize() passes @errp to error_prepend(), and as a
VirtioDeviceClass.realize method, its @errp is from DeviceClass.realize
so that there is no guarantee that the @errp won't point to
@error_fatal.

To avoid the issue like [1] said, add missing ERRP_GUARD() at the
beginning of this function.

     ("error: New macro ERRP_GUARD()").
