tracing: Have trace event string test handle zero length strings
If a trace event has in its TP_printk():
"%*.s", len, len ? __get_str(string) : NULL
It is perfectly valid if len is zero and passing in the NULL.
Unfortunately, the runtime string check at time of reading the trace sees
the NULL and flags it as a bad string and produces a WARN_ON().
Handle this case by passing into the test function if the format has an
asterisk (star) and if so, if the length is zero, then mark it as safe.
