Correct arity for instrumented methods w/o args

This ensures that an instrumented method that doesn't take arguments
reports an arity of 0, instead of -1.

If Ruby had a proper method for finding out the required arguments of a
method (e.g. Method#required_arguments) this would not have been an
issue. Sadly the only two methods we have are Method#parameters and
Method#arity, and both are equally painful to use.

Fixes gitlab-org/gitlab-ce#12450
