In add_xattr_entry(), if selabel_get_digests_all_partial_matches()
returns with digest_len = 0, the code gets executed as:

    sha1_buf = malloc(digest_len * 2 + 1);  /* Allocate 1 byte */

    /* ... */

    for (i = 0; i < digest_len; i++)  /* Do not do anything */
        sprintf((&sha1_buf[i * 2]), "%02x", xattr_digest[i]);

    /* ... */

    new_entry->digest = strdup(sha1_buf);  /* use of uninitiliazed content */

This is reported by some static code analyzers, even though in practise
digest_len should never be zero, and the call to sprintf() ensures that
the content of sha1_buf is initialized and terminated by '\0'.

Make sure to never call strdup() on an uninitialized string by verifying
that digest_len != 0.
