x86/bug: Fix BUG_FORMAT vs KASLR



Encoding a relative NULL pointer doesn't work for KASLR, when the
whole kernel image gets shifted, the __bug_table and the target string
get shifted by the same amount and the relative offset is preserved.

However when the target is an absolute 0 value and the __bug_table
gets moved about, the end result in a pointer equivalent to
kaslr_offset(), not NULL.

Notably, this will generate SHN_UNDEF relocations, and Ard would
really like to not have those at all.

Use the empty string to denote no-string.
