[libnftnl PATCH 4/4] chain: Correctly check realloc() call

[Phil Sutter <phil@nwl.cc>]

If realloc() fails, it returns NULL but the original pointer is
untouchted and therefore still has to be freed. Unconditionally
overwriting the old pointer is therefore a bad idea, use a temporary
variable instead.
