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.)
