fix(ui_client): check return value of channel_job_start (#27729)

Problem: null pointer member access in ui_client_start_server if
channel_job_start returns NULL.

Solution: check for it, return 0 in that case (which is already used to indicate
failure and is handled by main).

Happened on Linux when trying to run Nvim in an old gdbserver instance after having
rebuilt Nvim since. This gave E903 (the nvim binary was deleted, so " (deleted)" appears
as a suffix in the `v:progpath`, making it invalid), then ASAN complains due to the NPD;
instead it now then prints "Failed to start Nvim server!", as expected.
