tools: ynl-gen: validate 0 len strings from kernel
Strings from the kernel are guaranteed to be null terminated and ynl_attr_validate() checks for this. But it doesn't check if the string has a len of 0, which would cause problems when trying to access data[len - 1]. Fix this by checking that len is positive.
