Commit 7a3f542fbd "block/io: refactor padding" occasionally dropped
aligning for zero-length request: bdrv_init_padding() blindly return
false if bytes == 0, like there is nothing to align.

This leads the following command to crash:

./qemu-io --image-opts -c 'write 1 0' \
  driver=blkdebug,align=512,image.driver=null-co,image.size=512

>> qemu-io: block/io.c:1955: bdrv_aligned_pwritev: Assertion
    `(offset & (align - 1)) == 0' failed.
>> Aborted (core dumped)

Prior to 7a3f542fbd we does aligning of such zero requests. Instead of
recovering this behavior let's just do nothing on such requests as it
is useless.

Note that driver may have special meaning of zero-length reqeusts, like
qcow2_co_pwritev_compressed_part, so we can't skip any zero-length
operation. But for unaligned ones, we can't pass it to driver anyway.

This commit also fixes crash in iotest 80 running with -nocache:

./check -nocache -qcow2 80

which crashes on same assertion due to trying to read empty extra data
in qcow2_do_read_snapshots().
