stdlib,configs: Set SPEC examples partition param to optional
The SPEC2006 and SPEC2017 example configs require the passing of SPEC
disk image to function correctly. Prior to this commit a root partition
parameter was required. However, disk images don't necessarily have
partitions. In this case an empty string needed passed.
This patch makes the root partition parameter optional. If a disk image
does not have a root partition, it does not need specified.
