liblzma: Fix handling of memlimit == 0 in lzma_index_decoder().
It returned LZMA_PROG_ERROR, which was done to avoid zero as
the limit (because it's a special value elsewhere), but using
LZMA_PROG_ERROR is simply inconvenient and can cause bugs.
The fix/workaround is to treat 0 as if it were 1 byte. It's
effectively the same thing. The only weird consequence is
that then lzma_memlimit_get() will return 1 even when 0 was
specified as the limit.
This fixes a very rare corner case in xz --list where a specific
memory usage limit and a multi-stream file could print the
error message "Internal error (bug)" instead of saying that
the memory usage limit is too low.
