  Only check the vendor ID if the device has one set

Bug description:
  [Impact]
  fwupd will fail to install firmware where the firmware has a vendor-id but the device does not have one set. The vendor-id is currently optional but in about 6 months time it will be required. In this case devices that can't store vendor-ids will not be able to install firmware. There is an upstream fix to skip this check if the device doesn't have vendor IDs.

  https://github.com/fwupd/fwupd/commit/d5f965da2f8847e494e5c2a25a123bb8c31c7850

  [Test Case]
  There's not a specific test case for this, as no firmware currently meets this requirement. Thus the only test is that you can still successfully install firmware. Future firmware will trigger this case.

  [Regression Potential]
  Change is simple and unlikely to introduce a significant bug. This will cause a behaviour change, but it is done by the upstream maintainer and intentional.
