event: don't queue NULL event on OOM
Ever since commit 61ac8ce0, Coverity complained about remoteNetworkBuildEventLifecycle not checking for NULL failure to build an event, compared to other calls in the code base. But the problem is latent from copy and paste; all 17 of our remote*BuildEvent* functions in remote_driver.c have the same issue - if an OOM causes an event to not be built, we happily pass NULL to remoteEventQueue(), but that function has marked event as a nonnull parameter. We were getting lucky (the event queue's first use of the event happened to be a call to virIsObjectClass(), which acts gracefully on NULL, so there was no way to crash); but this is a latent bug waiting to bite us due to the disregard for the nonnull attribute, as well as a waste of resources in the event queue. Better is to just refuse to queue NULL. The discard is silent, since the problem only happens on OOM, and since events are already best effort - if we fail to get an event, it's not like we have any memory left to report the issue, nor any idea of who would benefit from knowing we couldn't create or queue the event. * src/remote/remote_driver.c (remoteEventQueue): Ignore NULL event.
