rtla: Avoid record NULL pointer dereference

Fix the following null/deref_null.cocci errors:

./tools/tracing/rtla/src/osnoise_hist.c:870:31-36: ERROR: record is NULL but dereferenced.

./tools/tracing/rtla/src/osnoise_top.c:650:31-36: ERROR: record is NULL but dereferenced.

./tools/tracing/rtla/src/timerlat_hist.c:905:31-36: ERROR: record is NULL but dereferenced.

./tools/tracing/rtla/src/timerlat_top.c:700:31-36: ERROR: record is NULL but dereferenced.

"record" is NULL before calling osnoise_init_trace_tool.

Add a tag "out_free" to avoid dereferring a NULL pointer.
