od --skip (-j) works even on files in /proc, when the kernel lies

* src/od.c (skip): Don't let kernel misinformation (nonempty files
in /proc with stat.st_size == 0) make "od -j N" misbehave.
Patch by Paul Eggert.
* NEWS: Document this work-around.
* tests/misc/od-zero-len: New file, test for the above.
