metaentry.c: Fix meta entry handling in case of xattr errors.
getxattr() call can fail in mentry_create(), so NULL-initialize mentry->xattr_values[i] and update mentry->xattrs upon error, so there is no attempt in mentry_free() to free unitialized xattr_names[i] and xattr_values[i] pointers. Fixes #38.
