Summary: Treating of empty array does not comply DSP0200

Initial Comment:
I was teached following XML are valid empty array in mailing list.
I issue GetInstance with following PropertyList, I expect responces do not have any properties which is described in DSP0200.

a) Empty array 1
<IPARAMVALUE NAME="PropertyList">
  <VALUE.ARRAY>
    <VALUE/>
  </VALUE.ARRAY>
</IPARAMVALUE>

b) Empty array 2
<IPARAMVALUE NAME="PropertyList">
  <VALUE.ARRAY/>
</IPARAMVALUE>

About a), responce is filtered correctly.
But, b)'s responce has all properties that are not filtered, it is not comply DSP0200.

My proposal fix; in the case of b), Bison parser build same result object as a).

Message:
I would like to update patch, because I propose more fixes for
InteropProvider and InteropServerProvider.

About InteropProvider;
InteropProvider calls getInstance() in brokerUpc.c. In this function, the
empty array PropertyList is treated PropertyList=NULL, and it is not
generate empty MsgSegment.
My proposal is that it generates empty MsgSegment for empty array
PropertyList.

About InteropServerProvider;
There is no PropertyList filter setting in the InteropServerProvider.
I added SetPropertyFilter() function in GetInstance and
EnumerateInstances.

Message:
It is a little bit complicated, because instances are handled by some
providers.
I verified following three providers;
(1) InternalProvider
    I checked with CIM_RegisteredProfile Instance (InstanceId=CIM:SFCB_PR)
which already exists.
(2) InteropProvider
    I create CIM_IndicationFilter instance by using CIM-XML which is
described in DSP0200 Appendix B.12. Subscription Example.
(3) InteropServerProvider
    I used CIM_NameSpace Instance (Name=root/interop) which already
exists.
