Don't try to free NULL xmlnodes stolen by jabber-receiving-xmlnode handlers Handlers get a (xmlnode **) that they're meant to set to NULL if they steal the node for their own nefarious purposes, signalling to the prpl that it should forget about that node. But the prpl still tried to free the xmlnode* even if it had been NULLified, triggering g_return_if_fail warnings. Fixes the issue discussed by Arne K���nig in http://pidgin.im/pipermail/devel/2008-November/007035.html and the following messages.
