[Bf-python] Incorrect checking for zero length vector

[Gilbert, Joseph]

This is the expected behavior that we talked about earlier. A
zero-length vector is not really a vector at all :) (well sort of) and
it is not possible to calculate the angle between a real vector and what
is essentially nothing - thus raising an error.

Maybe a test could be: (?)
If v1.length is not 0 and v2.length is not 0:
...angle = AngleBetweenVecs(v1,v2)
Else:
...raise AttributeError, 'Something went wrong'
Print angle

Found that AngleBetweenVecs raises an error when checking for a zero 
length Vector

# Heres my test from the interactive console.
print Mathutils.AngleBetweenVecs(Mathutils.Vector(10.0, 0 , 0), 
Mathutils.Vector(0,1,0))
exceptions.AttributeError:  Mathutils.AngleBetweenVecs(): zero-length 
vectors not acceptable
