prefix_filename(): safely handle the case where pfx_len=0

Current prefix_filename() is proofed against the case where the prefix
'pfx' is NULL or a 0-length string, _except on Windows_.

Change the behaviour to work the same on both platforms, and only
check pfx_len so that callers passing a NULL prefix with a nonzero
pfx_len segfault early on both.
