Return NULL for zero size allocations
In POSIX, zero size memory allocations are implementation-defined
behaviour. The implementation has two options:
https://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/functions/malloc.html
https://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/functions/posix_memalign.html
Linux and FreeBSD return a unique pointer for zero size memory
allocations. Return NULL on RTEMS to more likely catch the use of a
zero size memory area by erroneous applications.
Update #4390.
