        ckptnd: fix crash when checkpoint open sync to active times out [#1510]

        ckptnd core dumps with many different stack traces

        When a collocated checkpoint replica is opened, and the active replica 
has
        large numbers of sections (~200k), the sync from the active to the 
replica
        can timeout. If the MDS sync succeeds, but the error code in the 
out_evt is
        not SA_AIS_OK, the current code jumps to the ckpt_shm_node_free_error 
label.
        The code under this label assumes that the node was not successfully 
created
        in the database, so doesn't remove it. But in this case it was created. 
The
        node memory is freed, but the node is not removed from the database. The
        next time this checkpoint is accessed, cpnd will access freed memory and
        crash.

        Set a flag after the node has been added to the database. And in the
        ckpt_node_free_error label, remove the node from the database if it was
        added.

Testing Commands:
-----------------
1) create a collocated checkpoint with 200k sections, and continue updating the
   sections
2) open the same checkpoint on another node (this creates a replica)


Testing, Expected Results:
--------------------------
1) cpnd on the replica node should not crash, and sync should succeed

Reviewer Checklist:
-------------------
[Submitters: make sure that your review doesn't trigger any checkmarks!]


Your checkin has not passed review because (see checked entries):

___ Your RR template is generally incomplete; it has too many blank entries
    that need proper data filled in.

___ You have failed to nominate the proper persons for review and push.

___ Your patches do not have proper short+long header

___ You have grammar/spelling in your header that is unacceptable.

___ You have exceeded a sensible line length in your headers/comments/text.

___ You have failed to put in a proper Trac Ticket # into your commits.

___ You have incorrectly put/left internal data in your comments/files
    (i.e. internal bug tracking tool IDs, product names etc)

___ You have not given any evidence of testing beyond basic build tests.
    Demonstrate some level of runtime or other sanity testing.

___ You have ^M present in some of your files. These have to be removed.

___ You have needlessly changed whitespace or added whitespace crimes
    like trailing spaces, or spaces before tabs.

___ You have mixed real technical changes with whitespace and other
    cosmetic code cleanup changes. These have to be separate commits.

___ You need to refactor your submission into logical chunks; there is
    too much content into a single commit.

___ You have extraneous garbage in your review (merge commits etc)

___ You have giant attachments which should never have been sent;
    Instead you should place your content in a public tree to be pulled.

___ You have too many commits attached to an e-mail; resend as threaded
    commits, or place in a public tree for a pull.

___ You have resent this content multiple times without a clear indication
    of what has changed between each re-send.

___ You have failed to adequately and individually address all of the
    comments and change requests that were proposed in the initial review.

___ You have a misconfigured ~/.hgrc file (i.e. username, email etc)

___ Your computer have a badly configured date and time; confusing the
    the threaded patch review.

___ Your changes affect IPC mechanism, and you don't present any results
    for in-service upgradability test.

___ Your changes affect user manual and documentation, your patch series
    do not contain the patch that updates the Doxygen manual.
