lib/open: fix potential double-free, ensure *database=NULL on error

Browse source 
During refactoring for 0.32, the code that set notmuch=NULL on various
errors was moved into _finish_open. This meant that the the code which
relied on that to set *database to NULL on error was no longer
correct. It also introduced a potential double free, since the notmuch
struct was deallocated inside _finish_open (via n_d_destroy).

In this commit we revert to "allocator frees", and leave any cleanup
to the caller of _finish_open. This allows us to get back the
behaviour of setting *database to NULL with a small change. Other
callers of _finish_open will need free notmuch on errors.
