[PATCH] dix: Allow zero-height PutImage requests

The length checking code validates PutImage height and byte width by
making sure that byte-width >= INT32_MAX / height. If height is zero,
this generates a divide by zero exception. Allow zero height requests
explicitly, bypassing the INT32_MAX check.
