[PATCH][next] unicode: fix dereference of a potentially null pointer

[Colin King]

From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

The pointer 'tree' is deferenced when assigning pointer 'trie', however
trie is being null checked a few lines later, so it could potentially
be null. Fix the potential null pointer dereference by only dereferencing
it after it has been null checked.

Addresses-Coverity: ("Dereference before null check")
Fixes: b08fcacaaaf4 ("unicode: introduce UTF-8 character database")
