gnu: glibc: Improve handling of empty .a files.

This partially reverts 3b2de6529b9d77c8a74d431859a3ec334e9603c2, itself
a followup to 25b30622b4.

* gnu/packages/base.scm (glibc)[arguments]: In ‘move-static-libs’ phase,
remove ‘empty-static-libraries’ variable and rewrite
‘empty-static-library?’ to check file type and size.
* gnu/packages/commencement.scm (make-gcc-toolchain): Remove ‘copy-file’
call to create ‘librt.a’.
