Sebastian Huber 2c5199bb04 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.
