nfp: support variable NSP response lengths
We want to support extendable commands, where newer versions of the management FW may provide more information. Zero out the communication buffer before passing control to NSP. This way if management FW is old and only fills in first N bytes, the remaining ones will be zeros which extended ABI fields should reserve as not supported/not available.
