nis: Fix leak on realloc failure in nis_getnames [BZ #28150]
If pos >= count but realloc fails, tmp will not have been placed in getnames[pos] yet, and so will not be freed in free_null. Detected by Coverity. Also remove misleading comment from nis_getnames(), since it actually did properly release getnames when out of memory. Tested-by: Carlos O'Donell <carlos@redhat.com>
