phosphor-fan: Favor ALLOW_EMPTY

A number of recipes remove PN from the package list.  While this
seems to work it is unconventional and puts us into dusty corners
of oe-core/bitbake.

Adopt a more conventional approach with ALLOW_EMPTY_${PN} = "1".

Tested: Built phosphor-fan and validated package contents
