cmd/compile: avoid past-the-end pointer when zeroing

When we optimize append(s, make([]T, n)...), we have to be careful
not to pass &s[0] + len(s)*sizeof(T) as the argument to memclr, as that
pointer might be past-the-end. This can only happen if n is zero, so
just special-case n==0 in the generated code.

Fixes #67255
