metal : null-check buffer alloc to fix OOM crash (#25371)

• metal : null-check ggml_metal_buffer_init result to avoid OOM crash

ggml_backend_metal_buffer_type_alloc_buffer used the result of
ggml_metal_buffer_init without checking for NULL. ggml_metal_buffer_init
returns NULL when the underlying Metal allocation fails (e.g. an
out-of-memory condition), and the following ggml_metal_buffer_is_shared(res)
call dereferences it, turning a recoverable allocation failure into a hard
crash (EXC_BAD_ACCESS). This is easy to hit on memory-constrained devices
such as iOS when a model/context exceeds the available Metal budget.

Log the failure using the existing GGML_LOG_ERROR convention and return
NULL so the allocator surfaces a diagnosable error up the stack instead of
crashing.
