Fix test for whether the '.el' file is newer than '.elc'

* src/lread.c (Fload): Don't overwrite the last character of the
file name in FOUND with 'c', unless the file name ended in ".elc"
to begin with.  Don't treat empty files as byte-compiled.  See
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2016-06/msg00463.html
for more details of the problem this caused.
