So far, QHT functions assume that the passed qht has previously been
initialized--otherwise they segfault.

This patch makes an exception for qht_statistics_init, with the goal
of simplifying calling code. For instance, qht_statistics_init is
called from the 'info jit' dump, and given that under KVM the TB qht
is never initialized, we get a segfault. Thus, instead of complicating
the 'info jit' code with additional checks, let's allow passing an
uninitialized qht to qht_statistics_init.

While at it, add a test for this to test-qht.

Before the patch (for $ qemu -enable-kvm [...]):
(qemu) info jit
[...]
direct jump count   0 (0%) (2 jumps=0 0%)
Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

After the patch:
(qemu) info jit
[...]
direct jump count   0 (0%) (2 jumps=0 0%)
TB hash buckets     0/0 (-nan% head buckets used)
TB hash occupancy   nan% avg chain occ. Histogram: (null)
TB hash avg chain   nan buckets. Histogram: (null)
[...]
