perf tools: Fix get_max_num() size_t underflow on empty sysfs file

get_max_num() reads a sysfs file (cpu/possible, cpu/present, or
node/possible) and scans backward from the end to find the last
number.  If the file is empty, filename__read_str() returns num == 0.
The loop `while (--num)` decrements the size_t from 0 to SIZE_MAX,
reading backward across the heap until a comma or hyphen is found
or unmapped memory is hit.

Add an early return for empty files before the backward scan.
