scripts/qapi-types.py: Add dummy member to empty structs

Browse source 
Make sure that all generated C structs have at least one field; this
avoids potential issues with attempting to malloc space for
zero-length structs in C (g_malloc(sizeof struct) would return NULL).
It also avoids an incompatibility with C++ (where an empty struct is
size 1); that isn't important to us now but might be in future.

Generated empty structures look like this:
    struct Abort
    {
        char qapi_dummy_field_for_empty_struct;
    };

This silences clang warnings like:
./qapi-types.h:3752:1: warning: empty struct has size 0 in C, size 1 in C++ [-Wextern-c-compat]
struct Abort
^
