Don't report results when the results list is empty

When inserting items into the result store, a ResultItem is created,
which stores a pointer to the results list and their size. If the size
of the ResultItem is set to 0, it means that a single result is stored.
In case of trying to report results via an empty list, the size is 0, so
result store treats it as a single result.

Added checks before storing the results to make sure that the result
list isn't empty. Note that empty lists are allowed in some cases for
the filter mode, because ResultStoreBase::addResults() knows how to
handle those cases correctly.
