fsmonitor: plug token-data leak on early daemon-startup failures

`fsmonitor_run_daemon()` allocates `state.current_token_data`
before any subordinate setup step that may fail (alias resolution,
listener/health constructors, asynchronous IPC server init). On
the successful path the listener thread takes ownership and clears
the field during its teardown, so the `done:` cleanup block sees a
NULL pointer. On every early-error path, however, control jumps
straight to `done:` with the freshly allocated token data still
referenced, and it is never freed, as Coverity flagged.

Free it at the top of `done:` and clear the pointer. The success
path is a no-op (the pointer is already NULL there); the error
paths now drop the otherwise-leaked allocation.
`fsmonitor_free_token_data()` is NULL-safe and asserts
`client_ref_count == 0`, which holds trivially here because the
IPC server has not yet begun accepting clients when these failures
occur.
