'virStoragePoolObjListSearch' explicitly documents that it's returning
a pointer to a locked and ref'd pool that maches the lookup function.

This was not the case as in commit 0c4b391e2a9 (released in
libvirt-8.3.0) the code was accidentally converted to use 'VIR_LOCK_GUARD'
which auto-unlocked it when leaving the scope, even when the code was
originally "leaking" the lock.

Revert the corresponding conversion and add a comment that this function
is intentionally leaking a locked object.
