system/qdev: Remove pointless NULL check in qdev_device_add_from_qdict

Coverity reported a unnecessary NULL check:

  qemu/system/qdev-monitor.c: 720 in qdev_device_add_from_qdict()
  683     /* create device */
  684     dev = qdev_new(driver);
  ...
  719     err_del_dev:
  >>>     CID 1590192:  Null pointer dereferences  (REVERSE_INULL)
  >>>     Null-checking "dev" suggests that it may be null, but it has already been dereferenced on all paths leading to the check.
  720         if (dev) {
  721             object_unparent(OBJECT(dev));
  722             object_unref(OBJECT(dev));
  723         }
  724         return NULL;
  725     }

Indeed, unlike qdev_try_new() which can return NULL,
qdev_new() always returns a heap pointer (or aborts).

Remove the unnecessary assignment and check.
