gdb/dwarf2/read.c: Handle empty CU name

I recently came across a case where a compiler would emit a CU with an
empty name.  In such case, the attribute object constructed by GDB will
return nullptr when as_string is called.  One place is not checking for
this possibility.  As a result, loading such binary results in a GDB
crash:

    $ gdb -q a.out
    Reading symbols from a.out...

    ---------------------
    A fatal error internal to GDB has been detected, further
    debugging is not possible.  GDB will now terminate.

    This is a bug, please report it.  For instructions, see:

    Segmentation fault (core dumped)

This seems to be a regression introduced by the following commit:

    commit 00105aa1c4d9933fe3cfe9bc1be0daefe9f8ca36
    Date:   Tue Sep 24 10:24:22 2024 +0200

        [gdb/symtab] Don't expand non-Ada CUs for info exceptions

This patch fixes this issue by checking if attr->as_string returns
nullptr.
