qom: Fix default values in help

Output of default values in device help is broken:

    $ ./qemu-system-x86_64 -S -display none -monitor stdio
    QEMU 5.2.50 monitor - type 'help' for more information
    (qemu) device_add pvpanic,help
    pvpanic options:
      events=<uint8>         -  (default: (null))
      ioport=<uint16>        -  (default: (null))
      pvpanic[0]=<child<qemu:memory-region>>

The "(null)" is glibc printing a null pointer.  Other systems crash
instead.  Having a help request crash a running VM can really spoil
your day.

Root cause is a botched replacement of qstring_free() by
g_string_free(): to get the string back, we need to pass true to the
former, but false to the latter.  Fix the argument.
