app_dial: Fix dial status regression.

ASTERISK_28638 caused a regression by incorrectly aborting
early and overwriting the status on certain calls.
This was exhibited by certain technologies such as DAHDI,
where DAHDI returns NULL for the request if a line is busy.
This caused the BUSY condition to be incorrectly treated
as CHANUNAVAIL because the DIALSTATUS was getting incorrectly
overwritten and call handling was aborted early.

This is fixed by instead checking if any valid peers have been
specified, as opposed to checking the list size of successful
requests. This is because the latter could be empty but this
does not indicate any kind of problem. This restores the
previous working behavior.
