Commit ab32b78 "audio: Simplify audio_bug() removing old code"
introduced abort() in audio_bug() for regular builds.

audio_bug() was never meant to abort QEMU for the following
reasons.

  - There's code in audio_bug() that expects audio_bug() gets
    called more than once with error condition true. The variable
    'shown' is only 0 on first error.

  - All call sites test the return code of audio_bug(), print
    an error context message and handle the errror.

  - The abort() in audio_bug() enables a class of guest-triggered
    aborts similar to the Launchpad Bug #1910603 at
    https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1910603.
