[UB] Fix a nasty place where we would pass null pointers to memcpy.

This happens to work, but is not guaranteed to work. Indeed, most memcpy
interfaces in Linux-land annotate these arguments as nonnull, and GCC
and LLVM both can and do optimized based upon that. When they do so,
they might legitimately have miscompiled code calling this routine with
two valid iterators, 'nullptr' and 'nullptr'. There was even code doing
precisely this because StringRef().begin() and StringRef().end() both
produce null pointers.

This was found by UBSan.
