render: Avoid 0 or less animated cursors

Animated cursors use a series of cursors that the client can set.

By default, the Xserver assumes at least one cursor is specified
while a client may actually pass no cursor at all.

That causes an out-of-bound read creating the animated cursor and a
crash of the Xserver:

 | Invalid read of size 8
 |    at 0x5323F4: AnimCursorCreate (animcur.c:325)
 |    by 0x52D4C5: ProcRenderCreateAnimCursor (render.c:1817)

 |    by 0x4287F5: main (stubmain.c:34)
 |  Address 0x8 is not stack'd, malloc'd or (recently) free'd

To avoid the issue, check the number of cursors specified and return a
BadValue error in both the proc handler (early) and the animated cursor
creation (as this is a public function) if there is 0 or less cursor.
