qemu: remove unreachable code in qemuProcessStart()

Back when the original version of this chunk of code was added (commit
41b087198 in libvirt-0.8.1 in April 2010), we used virExecDaemonize()
to start the qemu process, and would continue on in the function
(which at that time was called qemudStartVMDaemon()) even if a -1 was
returned. So it was possible to get to this code with rv == -1 (it was
called "ret" in that version of the code).

In modern libvirt code, qemu is started with virCommandRun(); then we
call virPidFileReadPath(); those are the only two ways of setting "rv"
prior to this code being removed, and in either case if the new value
of rv < 0, then we immediately skip over the rest of the code to the
cleanup: label.

This means that the code being removed by this patch is
unreachable.
