tools: ynl-gen: don't consider requests with fixed hdr empty

C codegen skips generating the structs if request/reply has no attrs.
In such cases the request op takes no argument and return int
(rather than response struct). In case of classic netlink a lot of
information gets passed using the fixed struct, however, so adjust
the logic to consider a request empty only if it has no attrs _and_
no fixed struct.
