Not able to run any function in Openwhisk after running an empty action

## Environment details:

* **Kubernetes** v1.22.6
* **Ubuntu** 20.04.4 LTS
* **Docker** 20.10.12, build 20.10.12-0ubuntu2~20.04.1

## Steps to reproduce the issue:

I had an Openwhisk setup deployed on Kubernetes which was working well. For experimentation, I created an action called `empty `with an empty file named `empty.js` just to see what will happen. When I invoked it with `wsk -i action invoke empty --result`, it gave the following output:
```
{
"error": "Missing main/no code to execute."
}
```
which is the correct and expected output. Till here everything is fine. After this, when I try to invoke any other actions which have the function code and were working fine before I tried the empty action, they also give the same error as the empty action. Now, when I try the `hello.js` function:
```
function main(params) {
var name = params.name || 'World';
return {payload: 'Hello, ' + name + '!'};
}
```
Instead of returning the expected payload, it outputs:
```
{
"error": "Missing main/no code to execute."
}
```
Same for other nodejs actions which were working before but stopped working after I tried the empty action.
I tried a python based action (name: `prime`, calculates nth prime number) which used to work before as expected. But now, it throws the following error:
```
{
"error": "Error unmarshaling request: json: cannot unmarshal object into Go struct field initBodyRequest.value.code of type string"
}
```

In the invoker logs, I see the following messages:
```
[2022-08-31T07:28:00.090Z] [ERROR] [#tid_sid_unknown] [ContainerProxy] Failed during init of cold container Some(ContainerId(wskowdev-invoker-00-11-guest-prime)), queued activations will be aborted.

```

For the nodejs actions, the invoker logs show:
```
[2022-08-30T17:53:48.891Z] [ERROR] [#tid_sid_unknown] [ContainerProxy] Failed during init of cold container Some(ContainerId(wskowdev-invoker-00-68-prewarm-nodejs14)), queued activations will be aborted.

```

I have tried to uninstall and re-install the `owdev` cluster which removed all the functions. I performed `kubeadm reset` as well.
Still the same error.

The issue is discussed here: https://openwhisk-team.slack.com/archives/C3TPCAQG1/p1661878664234569

Is this a bug?

Reproduce the issue with the reported `wsk` invocations for the empty, Node.js, and Python actions, then inspect the corresponding invoker and ContainerProxy logs. Compare the failed initialization and request payloads; done means valid actions continue to invoke successfully after an empty action is run.
