xdl_merge(): fix a segmentation fault when refining conflicts

The function xdl_refine_conflicts() tries to break down huge
conflicts by doing a diff on the conflicting regions. However,
this does not make sense when one side is empty.

Worse, when one side is not only empty, but after EOF, the code
accessed unmapped memory.

Noticed by Luben Tuikov, Shawn Pearce and Alexandre Julliard, the
latter providing a test case.
