Zhao Jianing b564fcd869 plugin/autopath: Fixes a nil pointer dereference panic in autopath during search path walk (#8517)
* plugin/autopath: Fixes a nil pointer dereference panic in autopath during search path walk

When a plugin later in the chain returns a ClientWrite rcode without
writing a response (for example acl's drop action, which returns
(dns.RcodeSuccess, nil) without calling WriteMsg), autopath dereferences
a nil nw.Msg at nw.Msg.Rcode and panics. The final fallback
w.WriteMsg(firstReply) can also receive a nil firstReply for the same
reason.

Skip search path elements that produced no message, and only write the
first reply when it is non-nil. This mirrors the nil guards recently
added in plugin/minimal (#8506), plugin/dns64 (#8511) and plugin/cache
(#8512).

* plugin/autopath: silence unused-parameter lint and assert no client write

Address review feedback on #8517: rename the unused 'w' parameter in
TestAutoPathNilMsgFromNext to '_w' so the revive unused-parameter check
passes, and assert that the recorder receives no message so the intended
drop/no-client-write behavior is explicit.
