The "close handle without consuming VPD" testcase has inconsistent
results because it fails to initialize the location code object it
passes to ioctl() to create a VPD handle. Initialize the location code
to the empty string as intended.

Calling get_system_loc_code before checking devfd and errno fails the test
when the device is not available, the expected behaviour is a SKIP.
Change the order of 'SKIP_IF_MSG' to correctly SKIP when the /dev/
papr-vpd device is not available.
Test output before:
Test FAILED on line 271
Test output after:
[SKIP] Test skipped on line 266: /dev/papr-vpd not present

Add selftests for /dev/papr-vpd, exercising the common expected use
cases:
* Retrieve all VPD by passing an empty location code.
* Retrieve the "system VPD" by passing a location code derived from DT
root node properties, as done by the vpdupdate command.
The tests also verify that certain intended properties of the driver
hold:
* Passing an unterminated location code to PAPR_VPD_CREATE_HANDLE gets
EINVAL.
* Passing a NULL location code pointer to PAPR_VPD_CREATE_HANDLE gets
EFAULT.
* Closing the device node without first issuing a
PAPR_VPD_CREATE_HANDLE command to it succeeds.
* Releasing a handle without first consuming any data from it
succeeds.
* Re-reading the contents of a handle returns the same data as the
first time.
Some minimal validation of the returned data is performed.
The tests are skipped on systems where the papr-vpd driver does not
initialize, making this useful only on PowerVM LPARs at this point.
