Consider the following declaration of an nt_checked array:
char p nt_checked[] = {}
According to the Checked C spec section 2.4:
1. nt_checked declares an array whose last element is a null terminator. The size
of the array includes the null terminator element.
2. An nt_checked array with size d converts to an nt_array_ptr with a count of d -
1 elements.
So it should be illegal to declare an nt_checked array with an empty initializer list.
This fixes issue #1120.
