i965: Allocate at least some URB space even when max_vertices = 0.
Allocating zero URB space is a really bad idea. The hardware has to
give threads a handle to their URB space, and threads have to use that
to terminate the thread. Having it be an empty region just breaks a
lot of assumptions. Hence, why we asserted that it isn't possible.
Unfortunately, it /is/ possible prior to Gen8, if max_vertices = 0.
In theory a geometry shader could do SSBO/image access and maybe
still accomplish something. In reality, this is tripped up by
conformance tests.
Gen8+ already avoids this problem by placing the vertex count DWord
in the URB entry header. This fixes things on earlier generations.
