Subject: [PATCH bpf] nfp: bpf: allow zero-length capabilities

Some BPF capabilities carry no value, they simply indicate feature
is present.  Our capability parsing loop will exit early if last
capability is zero-length because it's looking for more than 8 bytes
of data (8B is our TLV header length).  Allow the last capability to
be zero-length.

This bug would lead to driver failing to probe with the following error
if the last capability FW advertises is zero-length:

    nfp: BPF capabilities left after parsing, parsed:92 total length:100
    nfp: invalid BPF capabilities at offset:92

Note the "parsed" and "length" values are 8 apart.

No shipping FW runs into this issue, but we can't guarantee that will
remain the case.

Fixes: 77a844ee650c ("nfp: bpf: prepare for parsing BPF FW capabilities")
