Make sure to drop the reference taken when looking up the th device
during output device open() on errors and on close().

Note that a recent commit fixed the leak in a couple of open() error
paths but not all of them, and the reference is still leaking on
successful open().

Fixes: 39f4034693b7 ("intel_th: Add driver infrastructure for Intel(R) Trace Hub devices")
Fixes: 6d5925b667e4 ("intel_th: Fix error handling in intel_th_output_open")
