The struct resctrl_val_param has control and monitor groups as char arrays but they are not supposed to be mutated within resctrl_val(). Convert the ctrlgrp and mongrp char array within resctrl_val_param to plain const char pointers and adjust the strlen() based checks to check NULL instead. Convert !grp_name check in create_grp() into internal sanity check by returning error if the caller asked to create a group but doesn't provide a name for the group. The existing code already abides this by only calling create_grp() if mongrp is non-NULL so the error should never be returned with the current selftests (ctrlgrp is never NULL).
