Avoid memcpy() with a NULL source pointer and count == 0
When memcpy() is called on a pointer, the compiler is entitled to assume
that the pointer is not null, which can lead to optimizing nearby code
in potentially undesirable ways. We still want such optimizations
(gcc's -fdelete-null-pointer-checks) in cases where they're valid.
