inventory collection should ignore errors that mean a slot has no valid caboose

After performing the upgrade to R14, a PSC that was added to the rack at a later date is reporting an error in inventory collection:

Error response from SP: failed to read data from the caboose

Start with the inventory collection path exercised by inventory show and trace how the failed to read data from the caboose response is handled. Confirm the FirstPageErased state represents a slot without a valid caboose, then verify that inventory collection no longer reports this condition as an error while preserving other caboose failures.
