In order to compact tables we need at least two tables. Bail out early
from `reftable_stack_auto_compact()` in case we have less than two
tables.
This is mostly defense in depth: `stack_table_sizes_for_compaction()`
may try to allocate a zero-byte object when there aren't any readers,
and that may lead to a `NULL` pointer on some platforms like NonStop
which causes us to bail out with an out-of-memory error.
