Fix: data pending: allow empty streams

There are cases where a stream can be completely empty (no packet to
write) with UST: for instance, if a traced application is either
preempted for a long time, terminated, or stopped, between reserve and
commit. This will make the consumer consider that this stream has no
data ready. If this situation occurs in the first sub-buffer of a
stream, this stream will have no data at all (0 bytes).

Therefore, we need to let the data pending check consider that no data
is pending in this situation, otherwise it can make the data pending
check always return that there is data pending.
