Fixes: #64771

This change treats zero-byte batches as successful no-ops before they reach
the broadcast buffer, matching the existing push-stream behavior. It adds
coverage for the synchronous and asynchronous single-write and vector-write
methods.

Zero-byte writes append entries to the broadcast buffer without
increasing bufferedBytes. This allows write('') and writev([]) to
bypass backpressure and grow the buffer without bound.

Treat zero-byte batches as successful no-ops, matching push streams,
and add coverage for the synchronous and asynchronous writer methods.
