do not remap current files if nullptrs in cache generation
If the cache needs to grow to make room to insert volatile files like
deb files into the cache we were remapping null-pointers making them
non-null-pointers in the process causing trouble later on.
Only the current Releasefile pointer can currently legally be a
nullpointer as volatile files have no release file they belong to, but
for safety the pointer to the current Packages file is equally guarded.
The option APT::Cache-Start can be used to workaround this problem.
