gladevcp: move return out of finally in SAVE_PROGRAM#4075

gtk_action.py had 'return npath' inside a finally: block. A return in finally swallows any in-flight exception and overrides earlier returns, so the except branch's 'return None' (the error path) was always clobbered: a failed save still returned the path and hid the exception. Dedent the return out of the finally so the finally only closes the file. On success the function returns npath; on a write error it now correctly returns None. Also silences the Python 3.12+ SyntaxWarning: 'return' in a 'finally' block. Surfaced by the ui-smoke tests (PR LinuxCNC#4054). Fixes LinuxCNC#4067

return npathinside a finally: block. A return infinally swallows any in-flight exception and overrides earlier returns,

return None(the error path) was always clobbered:a failed save still returned the path and hid the exception.
Dedent the return out of the finally so the finally only closes the file.
On success the function returns the path; on a write error it now returns
None. Also silences the Python 3.12+ SyntaxWarning: 'return' in a 'finally'
block.
Surfaced in the ui-smoke review, PR #4054.
Fixes #4067
Test: py_compile clean with no SyntaxWarning; success returns path, write
error returns None.
