Previously, list_moved() only worked with non-empty lists, but this was a
caveat that was really easy to miss. parse_ofp_group_mod_file() had a bug
because it didn't honor that restriction. This commit fixes the problem,
by modifying the list_moved() interface to be harder to use incorrectly
and then updating the callers.

I already applied this based on Thomas's ack. It had not been formally
sent to the list, so here it is for completeness.
