Fix xbzrle vs last_sent_block update
My fix (84e7b80a) replaced the last_sent_block update that I'd
removed earlier; however it was too aggressive in the xbzrle case.

save_xbzrle_page might return '0' to mean that the page didn't
need sending since it was the same as the last sent version;
in this case we can't update 'last_sent_block' since we didn't
actually send it.

Symptom: 'Illegal RAM offset 1018000' as we try and send a page
        to the wrong RAMBlock;  potentially that could be a data
        corruption if you were really unlucky.
