net/tls: Consume empty data records in tls_sw_read_sock()
A peer may send a zero-length TLS application_data record; TLS 1.3
explicitly permits these as a traffic-analysis countermeasure (RFC
8446, Section 5.1). After decryption such a record has full_len ==
0. tls_sw_read_sock() hands it to the read_actor, which has no
payload to consume and returns zero. The loop treats a zero return
as backpressure (used <= 0), requeues the skb at the head of
rx_list, and stops. rx_list is serviced head-first on the next
call, so the empty record is dequeued, fails the same way, and is
requeued again; every later record on the connection is blocked
behind it.
tls_sw_recvmsg() does not stall on this: a zero-length data record
copies nothing and falls through to consume_skb(). Mirror that in
the read_sock() path by recognizing an empty data record before
the actor runs, consuming it, and continuing.
