Fill sid container with empty data through the specified date.

        If the last recorded trade is not at the close, then that day will be
        padded with zeros until its close. Any day after that (up to and
        including the specified date) will be padded with `minute_per_day`
        worth of zeros

        Parameters
        ----------
        sid : int
            The asset identifier for the data being written.
        date : datetime-like
            The date used to calculate how many slots to be pad.
            The padding is done through the date, i.e. after the padding is
            done the `last_date_in_output_for_sid` will be equal to `date`
