Figured :)

I'm all for being paranoid, but there's not much sense doing a round-trip to the 
SIM for a 0 byte read.  So I rather we catch this elsewhere.

There's some sanity checking of num_bytes being 0 once the file info has been 
obtained.  It should be reset to file length if it is zero, which is generally 
what we want for simple binary files.

Invocations of ofono_sim_read_bytes() should probably sanity check the length if 
they want to be fully paranoid.

I went ahead and applied this patch without this particular chunk.
