r6528: - in tdb_fetch() we effectively disallowed zero length records by
returning NULL/0, which is the same as we used for a failure. Having to look at tdb->ecode (which we never do) is too error prone. Instead, tdb_fetch() should behave like malloc() and talloc(), where zero length is not special and malloc(0) returns a valid pointer. - similarly in data_blob(), asking for data_blob(NULL, 0) should return a zero blob, but asking for data_blob(ptr, 0) should return a zero length blob with a valid pointer, just like talloc() and malloc() This change fixes the SummaryInformation stream stored in the tdb backend when manipulated from w2k. The w2k client was using SET_EOF_INFORMATION to create a zero-length stream, which we return STATUS_NOT_FOUND on, as the tdb_fetch() gave us back a NULL/0 blob, which we returned as not-found (This used to be commit 162bbe4402b9de6ac06103df904b9fc204fbff29)
