api: improve handling of removed VMs just before the call (try 2)

If the destination domain doesn't exist anymore when the call gets
to qubesd, inform the client accordingly rather than giving it
a generic PermissionDenied error.
This enables client applications to handle such edge cases. Some
may want to inform the user about an incorrect request, others
(e.g. qvm-ls) may want to remove the specific domain from their
result list or try again later.

Fixes QubesOS/qubes-issues#5105
