Mikko Ylinen 68bb0935bd devicemanager: do not leak empty TopologyInfo to TopologyManager ...

Device Plugins that wish to leverage the Topology Manager can send back a populated
TopologyInfo struct as part of the device registration, along with the device IDs
and the health of the device. TopologyInfo is converted to TopologyHints and
used by TopologyManager to find the optimal/desired resource allocation for a Pod.

If a plugin sends an empty but non-nil instance of TopologyInfo for a resource,
devicemanager passes it on as an empty instance of TopologyHint which is
currently interpreted as "Hint Provider has no possible NUMA affinities
for resource" which further means that pods requesting that resource will fail.

To not block device resources that pass TopologyInfo{Nodes:[]*NUMANode{}} from being
used, interprete that as nil set of hints and not a []TopologyHint{}.
