Trying to print text which is ignored (e.g. `\r` or `\n` or `\t`), or trying to 
print empty shapes generates PostScript graphics context setup commands which 
are not necessary. This can lead to unnecessarily large PostScript files, and 
can complicate analysis / comparison of these files.

Two methods are impacted:

`PSPrinterJob.textOut(...)`: The `prepDrawing()` method should only be called 
once all sanity checks have passed. Otherwise, it will add PS graphics context 
setup commands that may not be necessary.

`PSPrinterJob.deviceFill(...)`: This method should do nothing if the provided 
`PathIterator` is empty. Otherwise, it will add PS graphics context setup 
commands that are not necessary.

The changes in `PSPrinterJob.textOut(...)` eliminated a big `if` statement, 
therefore include some indentation changes. Checking the diff with whitespace 
ignored should be helpful here.

A test case is included.
