fsck: give accurate error message on empty loose object files
Since 3ba7a065527a (A loose object is not corrupt if it
cannot be read due to EMFILE), "git fsck" on a repository with an empty
loose object file complains with the error message
fatal: failed to read object <sha1>: Invalid argument
This comes from a failure of mmap on this empty file, which sets errno to
EINVAL. Instead of calling xmmap on empty file, we display a clean error
message ourselves, and return a NULL pointer. The new message is
error: object file .git/objects/09/<rest-of-sha1> is empty
fatal: loose object <sha1> (stored in .git/objects/09/<rest-of-sha1>) is corrupt
The second line was already there before the regression in 3ba7a065527a,
and the first is an additional message, that should help diagnosing the
problem for the user.
