In the function auxtrace_parse_snapshot_options(), the callback pointer
"itr->parse_snapshot_options" can be NULL if it has not been set during
the AUX record initialization. This can cause tool crashing if the
callback pointer "itr->parse_snapshot_options" is dereferenced without
performing NULL check.
Add a NULL check for the pointer "itr->parse_snapshot_options" before
invoke the callback.
