Make GetSnapshotData() more resilient on out-of-memory errors
If the allocation of Snapshot->subxip fails, a follow-up call of
GetSnapshotData() would see a partially-initialized snapshot, causing a
NULL dereference on reentry when using "subxip" because only "xip" would
be allocated. In the event of an out-of-memory error when allocating
"subxip", "xip" is now reset before throwing an ERROR, so as Snapshots
can be allocated and handled gracefully on retry.
This problem is unlikely going to show up in practice, so no backpatch.
