ve: fix envID showing "/" instead of "0" for host ve0
ve0 is statically initialized with .ve_name = "0", but ve_online()
unconditionally overwrites it with cgroup name, which returns "/"
for the root cgroup.
In the vz7 kernel this didn't happen because ve_create() had an early
`goto do_init` for the root cgroup that skipped the name assignment
entirely, preserving the static "0". The current kernel's split into
css_alloc/css_online lost that guard.
Skip ve_name assignment in ve_online() for ve0, and correspondingly
skip kfree() on the static string in ve_offline().
