[PATCH 3/3] Fix release of filtered stream messages

["Daniel P. Berrange" <berrange@xxxxxxxxxx>]

The stream code was reusing a stream message object before
it was removed from the linked list of filtered messages.
This caused any later queued messages to be completely lost.

* daemon/stream.c: Delay reuse of stream message until
  after it is removed from the queue
