While QEMU accepts and interprets an empty string in the

for the 'tls-hostname' field when 'blockdev-add'-ing a NBD backend for
non-shared storage migration.
When libvirt sets up migation with TLS in 'qemuMigrationParamsEnableTLS'
the QEMU_MIGRATION_PARAM_TLS_HOSTNAME migration parameter will be set to
empty string in case when the 'hostname' argument is passed as NULL.
Later on when setting up the NBD connections for non-shared storage
migration 'qemuMigrationParamsGetTLSHostname', which fetches the value
of the aforementioned TLS parameter.
This bug was mostly latent until recently as libvirt used
MIGRATION_DEST_CONNECT_HOST mode in most cases which required the
hostname to be passed, thus the parameter was set properly.
This changed with 8d693d79c40 for post-copy migration, where libvirt now
instructs qemu to connect and thus passes NULL hostname to
qemuMigrationParamsEnableTLS, which in turn causes libvirt to try to
add NBD connection with empty string as tls-hostname resulting in:
error: internal error: unable to execute QEMU command 'blockdev-add':
Certificate does not match the hostname
To address this modify 'qemuMigrationParamsGetTLSHostname' to undo the
weird semantics the migration code uses to handle TLS hostname and make
it return NULL if the hostname is an empty string.
