[PATCH] clients/terminal: check for asprintf error condition instead

asprintf returns -1 if memory allocation fails and that's what
we're really protecting here. So check for -1 instead of > 0
result.
In general, when asprintf returns 0, then the memory allocation
succeeded, but no bytes printed. If we only free the allocated
memory when the result is > 0, then we miss the 0 condition and
leak. asprintf docs don't say much about whether a 0 result
can occur when the string passed in is clearly not empty... but
better safe than sorry.
