Refactor the code for inserting an empty packet into a new function
igc_insert_empty_packet(). This change extracts the logic for inserting
an empty packet from igc_xmit_frame_ring() into a separate function,
allowing it to be reused in future implementations, such as the XDP
zero copy transmit function.
This patch introduces no functional changes.
