The former only has an empty horizontal extent, whereas the latter is a completely empty stencil. > I notice the 2.13 documentation page about bar lines, > <http://www.lilypond.org/doc/v2.13/Documentation/notation/bars>, gives > the former as a way to allow a line break where there isn't a bar line, > but doesn't mention the latter.

It doesn't seem very useful due to the missing vertical extent, so I'd recommend using \bar "" in all cases an invisible barline is required. Paradoxically \bar "empty" takes up horizontal space since the column it's attached to isn't marked as `loose'.
