libpayload: Add wrappers for malloc which check its return value.

The xmalloc wrapper checks whether the malloc succeeded, and if not stops
execution and prints a message. xmalloc always returns a valid pointer. The
xzalloc wrapper does the same thing, but also zeroes the memory before
returning it.

libpayload: malloc: Fix xmalloc() for zero byte allocations

The C standard considers it legal to return a NULL pointer for zero
length memory allocations, and our malloc implementation does in fact
make use of that. xmalloc() and xzmalloc() should therefore not consider
this case a failure.

Also fixed a minor formatting issue.
