selinux: fix NULL-pointer dereference when hashtab allocation fails
When the hash table slot array allocation fails in hashtab_init(),
h->size is left initialized with a non-zero value, but the h->htable
pointer is NULL. This may then cause a NULL pointer dereference, since
the policydb code relies on the assumption that even after a failed
hashtab_init(), hashtab_map() and hashtab_destroy() can be safely called
on it. Yet, these detect an empty hashtab only by looking at the size.
Fix this by making sure that hashtab_init() always leaves behind a valid
empty hashtab when the allocation fails.
