read_binary() attaches 'mem' to the SpiceReplay::allocated list

On failure, SpiceReplay::allocated and its content are freed by
spice_replay_free().

SpiceReplay::primary_mem is also freed, which causes a double free as
replay_handle_create_primary() added 'mem' both to
SpiceReplay::primary_mem and SpiceReplay::allocated.

This commit avoids this by ensuring SpiceReplay::primary_mem is not kept
in the SpiceReplay::allocated list.
