If the root node name is not correctly initialized, we have a crash.

Under what circunstances may tree->value.opaque be NULL?

The function mxmlLoadFile doesn't work correctly. With my patch to import ruleset in json and xml. I have seen that if we use a ruleset in json and use the command nft import xml. The function mxmlLoadFile returns a tree without any information inside. Therefore, when we try to verify that the name of the first node is the same of the parameter, we have a crash.

We have two ways to solve it. Test if the node is NULL and:
 1- show an error that the node is not found.
 2- show an error that the input is not correctly.

I have thought that the best is the first. But I can change it.
