libxl: fix memory management in "xl network-attach"

The libxl_device_nic struct has strings which are initially strdup()ed and then 
free()ed in libxl_device_nic_destroy(). In the "network-attach" parser we need 
to free() the existing string and strdup((*argv) + N), rather than just copying 
the pointer.
