So empty structs in C are ignored, empty structs in C++ are treated as non-empty.

The "C++ struct containing an empty array" is sort of an edge case, since it's not actually legal C++, but the spec says the distinguishing factor is whether we're in C++ mode.  And gcc seems to do that, so let's do the same thing.  So instead of checking for `Size == 0`, check for `LangOpts.CPlusPlus`.

Also, please add a release note for this.
