The following commit introduced a regression while
fixing the filter and filter_expression ownership.

    Fix: leak of filter bytecode and expression on agent event re-enable

    The agent subsystem does not properly assume the clean-up of an
    event's filter bytecode and expression when a previously disabled
    event is re-enabled.

    This change ensures that the ownership of both the filter bytecode
    and expression is assumed by the agent subsystem and discarded
    when a matching event is found.

    Steps to reproduce the leak:
    $ lttng create
    $ lttng enable-event --python allo --filter 'a[42] == 241'
    $ lttng disable-event --python allo
    $ lttng enable-event --python allo --filter 'a[42] == 241'

Setting the "filter" object to NULL prevents the call to
add_filter_app_ctx when needed.

We use the filter from the newly created event to
perform the check and the call to add_filter_app_ctx.

Fixes coverity #1399733
