LOG: Instantiate Error in Target::GetEntryPointAddress() only when necessary

When `Target::GetEntryPointAddress()` calls `exe_module->GetObjectFile()->GetEntryPointAddress()`, and the returned
`entry_addr` is valid, it can immediately be returned.

However, just before that, an `llvm::Error` value has been setup, but in this case it is not consumed before returning, like is done further below in the function.

In https://bugs.freebsd.org/248745 we got a bug report for this, where a very simple test case aborts and dumps core:

```
* thread #1, name = 'testcase', stop reason = breakpoint 1.1
    frame #0: 0x00000000002018d4 testcase`main(argc=1, argv=0x00007fffffffea18) at testcase.c:3:5
   1	int main(int argc, char *argv[])
   2	{
-> 3	    return 0;
   4	}
(lldb) p argc
Program aborted due to an unhandled Error:
Error value was Success. (Note: Success values must still be checked prior to being destroyed).

Thread 1 received signal SIGABRT, Aborted.

Fix the incorrect error catch by only instantiating an `Error` object if it is necessary.
