samples/damon/prcl: handle damon_start() failure

damon_sample_prcl_start() callers assume it will clean up resources when
it fails.  And the function does the cleanup for context buildup failures.
However, it is not doing the cleanup for damon_start() failure.  As a
result, when damon_start() fails, it leaks the memory for DAMON context. 
Free the context in case of the failure to fix the issues.

Note that the issue can reliably be reproduced because the module calls
damon_start() in the exclusive mode.  For example,

    $ sudo damo start
    $ echo $$ | sudo tee /sys/module/damon_sample_prcl/parameters/target_pid
    $ echo Y | sudo tee /sys/module/damon_sample_prcl/parameters/enabled
    $ sudo cat /proc/allocinfo | grep damon_new_ctx

Because the first command is running another DAMON instance, the third
command fails the damon_start() call because the new DAMON instance cannot
exclusively run.  And without this fix, by repeating the third and the
fourth commands above, we can show the memory consumption is only
increasing due to the leaks.  It requires the sudo permission though.

The issue was discovered [1] by Sashiko.
