If a file is empty, still try to search it.

Files like /proc/cpuinfo will advertise themselves as a normal file with
size 0. Normally, this isn't a problem, but if ripgrep decides to use a
memory map, it skipped searching if the file was empty since it's an error
to memory map an empty file. Instead of returning 0, we should just fall
back to standard read calls.

Fixes #55.
