liblzma: Avoid memcpy(NULL, foo, 0) because it is undefined behavior.

I should have always known this but I didn't. Here is an example
as a reminder to myself:

    int mycopy(void *dest, void *src, size_t n)
    {
        memcpy(dest, src, n);
        return dest == NULL;
    }

In the example, a compiler may assume that dest != NULL because
passing NULL to memcpy() would be undefined behavior. Testing
with GCC 8.2.1, mycopy(NULL, NULL, 0) returns 1 with -O0 and -O1.
With -O2 the return value is 0 because the compiler infers that
dest cannot be NULL because it was already used with memcpy()
and thus the test for NULL gets optimized out.

In liblzma, if a null-pointer was passed to memcpy(), there were
no checks for NULL *after* the memcpy() call, so I cautiously
suspect that it shouldn't have caused bad behavior in practice,
but it's hard to be sure, and the problematic cases had to be
fixed anyway.

Thanks to Jeffrey Walton.
