vault: protect against empty Vault secret response

Fixes #4921

Sadly, we don't have proper mechanism to mock Vault client, so not sure how to best test this.

I inspected the Vault client interactions, specially for cases where returned value is nil even if the error is also nil.  I believe we covered all correctly now:
* [`v.client.Sys().InitStatus()`](f3853f11da/nomad/vault.go (L427)) - the value is non-nil boolean
* [`v.client.Sys().CapabilitiesSelf(path)`](f3853f11da/nomad/vault.go (L812)): Capabilities handles empty bodies in [`hasCapability`](f3853f11da/vendor/github.com/hashicorp/vault/api/sys_capabilities.go (L43-L45)) - also the `nil` array is handled with proper fail-safe default.
* [`v.client.Logical().Read(fmt.Sprintf("auth/token/roles/%s", role))`](f3853f11da/nomad/vault.go (L834-L840)) handles when `rsecret` is nil
