  When passed a pointer to a zero-sized struct, the access attribute
without the third argument misleads -Wstringop-overflow diagnostics to
think that a function is writing 1 byte into the zero-sized structs.
The attribute doesn't add that much value in this context, so drop it
completely for _FORTIFY_SOURCE=3.

Resolves: BZ #31383
Signed-off-by: Siddhesh Poyarekar <siddhesh@sourceware.org>

Changes from v2:
- Use supported-fortify to set the right fortification level for the
  compiler.

Changes from v1:
- Adjust test to read from /dev/zero

Maybe it makes more sense to add this test on debug subfolder, but I don't
have a strong preference.
