absorb: preserve changesets which were already empty

Most commands in Mercurial (commit, rebase, absorb itself) don’t create empty
changesets or drop them if they become empty. If there’s a changeset that’s
empty, it must be a deliberate choice of the user. At least it shouldn’t be
absorb’s responsibility to prune them. The fact that changesets that became
empty during absorb are pruned, is unaffected by this.

This case was found while writing patches which make it possible to configure
absorb and rebase to not drop empty changesets. Even without having such config
set, I think it’s valuable to preserve changesets which were already empty.

Make a narrow clone then archive it
  $ . "$TESTDIR/narrow-library.sh"

  $ hg init master
  $ cd master

  $ for x in `$TESTDIR/seq.py 3`; do
  >   echo $x > "f$x"
  >   hg add "f$x"
  >   hg commit -m "Add $x"
  > done
  $ cat >> .hg/hgrc << EOF
  > [narrowacl]
  > default.includes=f1 f2
  > EOF
  $ hg serve -a localhost -p $HGPORT1 -d --pid-file=hg.pid
  $ cat hg.pid >> "$DAEMON_PIDS"

  $ cd ..
  $ hg clone http://localhost:$HGPORT1 narrowclone1
  requesting all changes
  adding changesets
  adding manifests
  adding file changes
  added 3 changesets with 2 changes to 2 files
  new changesets * (glob)
  updating to branch default
  2 files updated, 0 files merged, 0 files removed, 0 files unresolved

The clone directory should only contain f1 and f2
  $ ls -A -1 narrowclone1 | sort
  .hg
  f1
  f2

Requirements should contain narrowhg
  $ cat narrowclone1/.hg/requires | grep narrowhg
  narrowhg-experimental

NarrowHG should track f1 and f2
  $ hg -R narrowclone1 tracked
  I path:f1
  I path:f2
