[PATCH for 6.2] nbd/server: Silence clang sanitizer warning

[PATCH for 6.2] nbd/server: Silence clang sanitizer warning

[Eric Blake]

clang's sanitizer is picky: memset(NULL, x, 0) is technically
undefined behavior, even though no sane implementation of memset()
deferences the NULL.  Caught by the nbd-qemu-allocation iotest.

The alternative to checking before each memset is to instead force an
allocation of 1 element instead of g_new0(type, 0)'s behavior of
returning NULL for a 0-length array.

Fixes: 3b1f244c59 (nbd: Allow export of multiple bitmaps for one device)
