* RV and RW fields must be at the last position in their respective
section (per the conditions in the spec). Therefore, the parser now
stops iterating over fields as soon as it encounters one of those
fields and checks whether the end of the resource has been reached;
* The lack of the RW field is not treated as a parsing error since we
can still extract valid data even though this is a PCI/PCIe VPD spec
violation;
* Individual fields must have a valid length - the parser needs to check
for invalid length values that violate boundary conditions of the
resource.
* A zero-length field may be the last one in the resource, however, the
boundary check is currently too strict to allow that.

Add support for deserializing the binary PCI/PCIe VPD format and storing
results in memory.
The VPD format is specified in "I.3. VPD Definitions" in PCI specs
(2.2+) and "6.28.1 VPD Format" PCIe 4.0. As section 6.28 in PCIe 4.0
notes, the PCI Local Bus and PCIe VPD formats are binary compatible
and PCIe 4.0 merely started incorporating what was already present in
PCI specs.
Linux kernel exposes a binary blob in the VPD format via sysfs since
v2.6.26 (commit 94e6108803469a37ee1e3c92dafdd1d59298602f) which requires
a parser to interpret.
