virSecurityManagerMetadataLock: Skip over duplicate paths

If there are two paths on the list that are the same we need to
lock it only once. Because when we try to lock it the second time
then open() fails. And if it didn't, locking it the second time
would fail for sure. After all, it is sufficient to lock all
paths just once satisfy the caller.
