Fix issue with reading zero bytes in Gzip_read.

pg_dump expects a read request of zero bytes to be a no-op; see for
example ReadStr().  Gzip_read got this wrong and falsely supposed
that the resulting gzret == 0 indicated an error.  We could complicate
that error-checking logic some more, but it seems best to just fall
out immediately when passed size == 0.

This bug breaks the nominally-supported case of manually gzip'ing
the toc.dat file within a directory-style dump, so back-patch to v16
where this code came in.  (Prior branches already have a short-circuit
for size == 0 before their only gzread call.)
