pg_resetwal: do not allow zero next multixact offset

Offset 0 is the "invalid" marker in pg_multixact/offsets since offsets
went 64-bit and the allocator stopped skipping it. pg_resetwal could
still produce it via -O 0 or guessed control values, breaking the first
multixact created after the reset ("MultiXact n has invalid offset",
and vacuum of the affected table fails from then on). Reject -O 0 like
-m and -o already do, and guess 1 like initdb does.
