When rte_flow_conv_item_spec() is called from rte_flow_conv_pattern(),
the spec, last and mask pointers are checked separately. If the API
is used incorrectly, the spec pointer may be NULL while last and mask
may be valid pointers.

In rte_flow_conv_item_spec() for GENVE_OPT and RAW item types the spec
pointer is used even if the function is called to copy last or mask.
It may cause a NULL pointer (spec) dereference.

This commit adds extra check of item->spec and if it is NULL, does not
copy further data relying on it
