load_contents(): don't try to mmap an empty file

Browse Source 
We don't actually create zero-length `packed-refs` files, but they are
valid and we should handle them correctly. The old code `xmmap()`ed
such files, which led to an error when `munmap()` was called. So, if
the `packed-refs` file is empty, leave the snapshot at its zero values
and return 0 without trying to read or mmap the file.

Returning 0 also makes `create_snapshot()` exit early, which avoids
the technically undefined comparison `NULL < NULL`.
