Runtime assertion when appending to dynamic arrays of empty structs

[Breush]

package main

Token :: struct {
    // Empty
};

main :: proc() {
    tokens : [dynamic]Token;

    token : Token;
    append(&tokens, token);
}

The above code fails on Linux (other platforms are not tested) with:

/home/breusta/dev/odin/core/os/os_linux.odin(222:2) Runtime assertion

Does not occur on Windows 10 x64. (Commit 1a4e25f14149428ff19f2da239abe54ff0083632).

Currently in Odin, size_of(struct{}) is 0 whilst in C/C++ it is 1. I am not so sure what the best approach is for this. And I have a hunch that this may be partially the reason for the bug.
