test-pread.sh: avoid diagnostics for those who ignore SIGPIPE * tests/test-pread.sh: Write no data into the pipe, because test-pread actually reads none. This avoids a diagnostic, "bash: echo: write error: Broken pipe", that arises in the unusual event something is ignoring SIGPIPE, and might be interpreted as some sort of failure. Reported by Bruno Haible.
