tree-diff: remove special-case diff-emitting code for empty-tree cases

Browse Source 
While walking trees, we iterate their entries from lowest to highest in
sort order, so empty tree means all entries were already went over.

If we artificially assign +infinity value to such tree "entry", it will
go after all usual entries, and through the usual driver loop we will be
taking the same actions, which were hand-coded for special cases, i.e.

    t1 empty, t2 non-empty
        pathcmp(+∞, t2) -> +1
        show_path(/*t1=*/NULL, t2);     /* = t1 > t2 case in main loop */

    t1 non-empty, t2-empty
        pathcmp(t1, +∞) -> -1
        show_path(t1, /*t2=*/NULL);     /* = t1 < t2 case in main loop */

In other words when we have t1 and t2, we return a sign that tells the
caller to indicate the "earlier" one to be emitted, and by returning the
sign that causes the non-empty side to be emitted, we will automatically
cause the entries from the remaining side to be emitted, without
attempting to touch the empty side at all.  We can teach
tree_entry_pathcmp() to pretend that an empty tree has an element that
sorts after anything else to achieve this.

Right now we never go to when compared tree descriptors are both
infinity, as this condition is checked in the loop beginning as
finishing criteria, but will do so in the future, when there will be
several parents iterated simultaneously, and some pair of them would run
to the end.
