rework sysconf table to treat zero entries as invalid

rework sysconf table to treat zero entries as invalid

based on patch by Timo Teräs. previously, the value zero was used as a
literal zero, meaning that all invalid sysconf "names", which should
result in sysconf returning -1, had to be explicitly listed. (in
addition, it was not possible for sysconf to set errno to EINVAL, as
there was no distinction between -1 as an error and -1 as a valid
result.)

now, the value 0 is used for invalid/undefined slots in the table and
a new switch table entry is used for returning literal zeros.

in addition, an off-by-one error in checking against the table size is
fixed.
