parse_number("0") reads uninitialized memory

valgrind caught that parse_number reads uninitialized memory when we
parse literal "0":

 $ valgrind ./gdb -q -nx -ex "set height 0"

Tested on x86_64 Fedora 20.

gdb/ChangeLog:
	* c-exp.y (parse_number): Skip handling base-switching prefixes if
	the input is only one character long.
