[PATCH v2] tracing/probe: reject empty immediate strings

[Pengpeng Hou]

parse_probe_arg() accepts quoted immediate strings and passes the body
after the opening quote to __parse_imm_string(). That helper currently
computes strlen(str) and immediately dereferences str[len - 1], which
underflows when the body is empty.

Reject empty immediate strings before checking for the closing quote.
