fix bulk upload of empty files

[mgallien]

force an empty body when we bulk upload empty files

force a "valid" checksum to be computed for empty files as bulk upload server side expects a checksum even for empty files

Close #5824

[mgallien]

@mgallien Looks nice, but I am still getting an error when syncing an empty file:

[WARNING] Could not complete propagation of "New Text Document (5).txt" by OCC::BulkPropagatorJob(0x2b23bd9f650) with status OCC::SyncFileItem::NormalError and error: "Network error: 302"

there are server side changes needed for a full fix
see nextcloud/server#39221
