platform/x86: asus-armoury: fix Use-After-Free and memory leak in driver init

In init_rog_tunables(), if dc_limits are defined and allocating
dc_rog_tunables fails, the already allocated ac_rog_tunables gets
freed but the pointer stored in
asus_armoury.rog_tunables[ASUS_ROG_TUNABLE_AC] is not cleared. Since
init_rog_tunables() returns void, the driver initialization continues,
which can lead to a Use-After-Free (UAF) when asus_fw_attr_add()
accesses the freed AC tunables pointer.

Additionally, if init_rog_tunables() succeeds but asus_fw_attr_add()
fails, the allocated tunables are not freed, resulting in a memory leak.

Fix these issues by making init_rog_tunables() return an error code and
propagating it in asus_fw_init(). Defer setting the global pointers in
asus_armoury.rog_tunables until both tunables have been successfully
allocated. If asus_fw_attr_add() fails, release the allocated resources
using a standard goto rollback block in asus_fw_init().
