CL 157557 changes the compiler to add one byte padding to
non-empty struct ending with a zero-sized field. Add the same
padding to the FFI type, so reflect.Call works.
This fixes test/fixedbugs/issue26335.go in the main repo.

The libffi library doesn't understand zero-sized objects.
When we see a zero-sized field in a struct, just skip it when
converting to the FFI data structures. There is no value to pass in
any case, so not telling libffi about the field doesn't affect
anything.
The test case for this is https://golang.org/cl/123316.

As we move toward the Go 1.7 garbage collector, it's essential that all
allocation of values that can contain Go pointers be done using the
correct type descriptor. That is simplest if we do all such allocation
in Go code. This rewrites the code that converts from a Go type to a
libffi CIF into Go.
