    gdb: fix "passing NULL to memcpy" UBsan error in dwarf2/cooked-index.c
    
    Reading a simple file compiled with :
    
        $ gcc -DONE=1 -gdwarf-4 -g3  test.c
        $ gcc --version
        gcc (Ubuntu 9.4.0-1ubuntu1~20.04) 9.4.0
    
    I get:
    
        Reading symbols from /tmp/cwd/a.out...
        /home/smarchi/src/binutils-gdb/gdb/dwarf2/cooked-index.c:332:11: runtime error: null pointer passed as argument 2, which is declared to never be null
    
    It looks like even if the size is 0 (the size of the `entries` vector is
    0), we shouldn't be passing a NULL pointer to memcpy.  And
    `entries.data ()` returns NULL.
    
    Fix that by using std::vector::insert to insert the items of entries
    into m_entries.  I haven't checked, but it should essentially compile
    down to a memcpy, since the vector elements are trivially copyiable.
