Creating a session with "lttng create --live" without specifying any
URL triggers a NULL pointer exception because the output is not set
when getting the session descriptor base path.

Indeed, the destination output URL will only be set later in
cmd_create_session_from_descriptor(), when setting the default output.

When the default output is used, no base path override is possible,
therefore it is fine to assign the base_path to NULL in the base path
getter.
