fio: fix smalloc strdop allocation failure
smalloc_strdup didn't check for allocation success and thereby ran into
segfaults if the single pool went out of memory.
Now with this patch applied it is still failing, but in a more consistent
way than segfaulting.
You still get a bad allocation, but it looks like this now:
fio: smalloc OOM
fio: filesetup.c:1495: dup_files: Assertion `0' failed.
Aborted
In fact the upper layers expected smalloc_strdup to retrun NULL on failure.
