From: Nikita Kurashkin <nkurash...@stsoft.ru>
Fix a parsing issue where empty ACL arguments inside braces were not detected,
causing misleading errors like "missing closing '}' in condition".
1) The while loop condition was modified: instead of checking the first
character of the string (*args[arg_end]), it now checks for the existence of
the string pointer (args[arg_end]).
This allows the loop to enter empty strings for further handling.
2) Inside the loop, an explicit check for empty strings (if (*args[arg_end] ==
'\0')) was added, which triggers an error and aborts processing.
3) After the loop, an additional check for the presence and non-emptiness of
the argument was added to replace the previous first-character check removed
from the while condition.
This change prevents compiler warnings about potential NULL dereferencing.
4) Added a test case to the configuration file to cover the scenario of an
empty ACL argument within {}.
