9pfs: allocate space for guest originated empty strings
If a guest sends an empty string paramater to any 9P operation, the current code unmarshals it into a V9fsString equal to { .size = 0, .data = NULL }. This is unfortunate because it can cause NULL pointer dereference to happen at various locations in the 9pfs code. And we don't want to check str->data everywhere we pass it to strcmp() or any other function which expects a dereferenceable pointer. This patch enforces the allocation of genuine C empty strings instead, so callers don't have to bother. Out of all v9fs_iov_vunmarshal() users, only v9fs_xattrwalk() checks if the returned string is empty. It now uses v9fs_string_size() since name.data cannot be NULL anymore.
