Subject: [PATCH v7 02/13] selftests/sgx: Fix uninitialized pointer dereferences in encl_get_entry

Ensure sym_tab and sym_names are zero-initialized and add an early-out
condition in the unlikely (erroneous) case that the enclave ELF file would
not contain a symbol table.

This addresses -Werror=maybe-uninitialized compiler warnings for gcc -O2.

Fixes: 33c5aac3bf32 ("selftests/sgx: Test complete changing of page type flow")
