hw/net/e1000e_core: Don't advance desc_offset for NULL buffer RX descriptors

In e1000e_write_packet_to_guest() we don't write data for RX descriptors
where the buffer address is NULL (as required by the i82574 datasheet
section 7.1.7.2). However, when we do this we still update desc_offset
by the amount of data we would have written to the RX descriptor if
it had a valid buffer pointer, resulting in our dropping that data
entirely. The data sheet is not 100% clear on the subject, but this
seems unlikely to be the correct behaviour.

Rearrange the null-descriptor logic so that we don't treat these
do-nothing descriptors as if we'd really written the data.

This both fixes a bug and also is a prerequisite to cleaning up
the size calculation logic in the next patch.

(Cc to stable largely because it will be needed for the next patch,
which fixes a more serious bug.)
