Don't assert out on tvb_memcpy() with a null data pointer if the length is 0.
If the length is 0, there's nothing to copy, so it doesn't matter if
there's no data to copy from. This fixes problems caused by allocating
a zero-length buffer and using that as the data for a tvbuff; the
allocation returns null, so the data pointer is null.
