qemu-char: BUGFIX, don't call FD_ISSET with negative fd
tcp_chr_connect(), unlike for example udp_chr_update_read_handler() does not check if the fd it is using is valid (>= 0) before passing it to qemu_set_fd_handler2(). If using e.g. a TCP serial port, which is not initially connected, this can result in -1 being passed to FD_ISSET, which has undefined behaviour. On x86 it seems to harmlessly return 0, but on PowerPC, it causes a fortify buffer overflow error to be thrown. This patch fixes this by putting an extra test in tcp_chr_connect(), and also adds an assert qemu_set_fd_handler2() to catch other such errors on all platforms, rather than just some.
