bsd-user: Fix possible memory leaks and wrong realloc call
These errors were reported by cppcheck: [bsd-user/elfload.c:1108]: (error) Common realloc mistake: "syms" nulled but not freed upon failure [bsd-user/elfload.c:1076]: (error) Memory leak: s [bsd-user/elfload.c:1079]: (error) Memory leak: syms v2: * The previous fix for memory leaks was incomplete (thanks to Peter Maydell for te hint). * Fix wrong realloc usage, too.
