tools/blktap2: Fix use of uninitialised variable in _tap_list_join3()

Clang points out:

  tap-ctl-list.c:457:28: error: variable 'entry' is uninitialized when
  used here [-Werror,-Wuninitialized]
          for (; *_entry != NULL; ++entry) {
                                    ^~~~~

The content of that loop clearly was meant to iterate over _entry rather than
entry, so is fixed to do so.  This presumably fixes a memory leak when
tapdisks get orphed, as only the first item on the list got freed.

There is no use of entry at all.  It is referenced in a
list_for_each_entry(tl, &tap->list, entry) construct, but this is just a
member name, and not a reference to local scope variable of the same name.
