Avoid calling memcpy() with a NULL source pointer and count == 0.

Browse Source 
As in commit 0a52d378b0, avoid doing something that has undefined
results according to the C standard, even though in practice there does
not seem to be any problem with it.

This fixes two places in numeric.c that demonstrably could call memcpy()
with such arguments.  I looked through that file and didn't see any other
places with similar hazards; this is not to claim that there are not such
places in other files.

Per report from Piotr Stefaniak.  Back-patch to 9.5 which is where the
previous commit was added.  We're more or less setting a precedent that
we will not worry about this type of issue in pre-9.5 branches unless
someone demonstrates a problem in the field.
