pretty: make empty userformats truly emptyjk/pretty-empty-format

If the user provides an empty format with "--format=", we
end up putting in extra whitespace that the user cannot
prevent. This comes from two places:

  1. If the format is missing a terminating newline, we add
     one automatically. This makes sense for --format=%h, but
     not for a truly empty format.

  2. We add an extra newline between the pretty-printed
     format and a diff or diffstat. If the format is empty,
     there's no point in doing so if there's nothing to
     separate.

With this patch, one can get a diff with no other cruft out
of "diff-tree --format= $commit".
