Jed Davis 850869a8df Bug 1595453 - Allow serializing zero-length ByteBufs. r=nika
If someone tried to serialize a zero-size ByteBuf, it could add a
zero-length segment to the `BufferList` and cause an assertion failure
later when trying to send the message.  This patch makes it a no-op (and
frees the supplied buffer, because the BufferList becomes its owner).

We previously asserted against adding zero-*capacity* segments (likely
also zero size, but possibly not) with WriteBytesZeroCopy, but only on
debug builds, and it was likely happening on release builds despite
that.  That case is now allowed.

Also, error handling for `BufferList::WriteBytesZeroCopy` has been
improved.  (This doesn't affect `Pickle` because it's using infallible
allocation, and no other instances of `BufferList` seem to use
`WriteBytesZeroCopy` at this time.)
