Do not abort on qemu_malloc(0) in production builds
qemu_malloc() does not allow size=0 to be passed in and aborts on this behavior. Unfortunately, there is good reason to believe that within qemu, there are a number of, so far, undetected places that assume size=0 can be safely passed. Since we do not want to abort unnecessarily in production builds, return qemu_malloc(1) whenever the version file indicates that this is a production build. Signed-off-by: Anthony Liguori <aliguori@us.ibm.com> (cherry picked from commit 20ff6c8066eb5346b9e066851cf8a1e0564a0f1a)
