test: use test_must_be_empty F instead of test -z $(cat F)

Commit Message

Use test_must_be_empty instead of reading the file and comparing its
contents to an empty string.  That's more efficient, as the function
only needs built-in meta-data only check in the usual case, and provides
nicer debug output otherwise.
