[freetype2] Avoid undefined behavior
Per ISO/IEC 9899:
If an argument to a function has an invalid value (such as a value
outside the domain of the function, or a pointer outside the address
space of the program, or a null pointer, orapointer to non-modifiable
storage when the corresponding parameter is not const-qualified) or a
type (after promotion) not expected by a function with variable number
of arguments, the behavior is undefined. If a function argument is
described as being an array, the pointer actually passed to the
function shall have a value such that all address computations and
accesses to objects (that would be valid if the pointer did point to
the first element of such an array) are in fact valid.
Per IEEE Std 1003.1:
size_t fread(void *restrict ptr, size_t size, size_t nitems,
FILE *restrict stream);
The fread() function shall read into the array pointed to by ptr up to
nitems elements whose size is specified by size in bytes, from the
stream pointed to by stream.
Since the first argument to `fread` is described as being an array, its
behavior is undefined when that argument is a null pointer.
Per the documentation on `ft_ansi_stream_io`:
If `count' is zero (this is, the function is used for seeking), a
non-zero return value indicates an error.
Thus the intent is clear, and the call to fread can be skipped, avoiding
UB.
