selftests/alsa: Fix memory leak in find_controls error path
In find_controls(), card_data is allocated with malloc() but when snd_ctl_open_lconf() fails, the code jumps to next_card without freeing the allocated memory. This results in a memory leak for each card where snd_ctl_open_lconf() fails. Add free(card_data) before goto next_card to ensure proper cleanup of the allocated memory in the error path.
