ParseXS: allow XS files with no XS again
GH #24016
ParseXS / xsubpp allowed .xs files to contain only C code; i.e. no XS
code. A warning was issued about about a missing MODULE line, but the C
contents of the file was emitted as-is.
My recent refactoring broke this - it was now generating a C code file
with zero lines. This was because ParseXS now splits the parsing and
code-emitting into two separate phases, and this code during parsing:
warn "Didn't find a 'MODULE ... PACKAGE ... PREFIX' line\n";
exit 0; # Not a fatal error for the caller process
was now exiting before any lines had been emitted.
The fix is to not suddenly exit, but instead continue with pared-down
parsing and code emitting.
