    Fix CID 1430932
    
    Coverity found a null pointer reference in nodelist_add_microdesc().
    This is almost certainly impossible assuming that the routerstatus_t
    returned by router_get_consensus_status_by_descriptor_digest() always
    corresponds to an entry in the nodelist.  Fixes bug 25629.
