libqtest: handle zero length memwrite/memread
Some recently added tests pass a zero length to qtest_memwrite(). Unfortunately, the qtest protocol doesn't implement an on-the-wire syntax for zero-length writes and the current code happily sends garbage to QEMU. This causes intermittent failures. It isn't worth the pain to enhance the protocol, so this patch simply fixes the issue by "just return, doing nothing". The same fix is applied to qtest_memread() since the issue also exists in the QEMU part of the "memread" command.
