Fix a segfault during startup

Browse Source 
If unix socket was configured as listener (such as a ControlSocket or a
SocksPort unix socket), and tor was started as root but not configured
to switch to another user, tor would segfault while trying to string
compare a NULL value.  Fixes bug 18261; bugfix on 0.2.8.1-alpha. Patch
