[PATCH] qemu: avoid text monitor null deref

[Eric Blake <eblake@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Detected by Coverity.  If, for some reason, our text monitor input
does not match our assumptions, we end up incrementing p while it
is NULL, then dereferencing the pointer 0x1, which will fault.

* src/qemu/qemu_monitor_text.c
(qemuMonitorTextGetBlockStatsParamsNumber): Rewrite to avoid
deref of strchr failure.  Fix indentation.
