Summary:                    Behaviour change with 3.1 - target properies set to
empty string returned as -NOTFOUND
Description: 
Under the old behaviour, when a target property was set to "",
get_target_property would give "". In version 3.1 it now gives prop-NOTFOUND.
Needless to say, this change breaks build systems that relied on the old
behaviour.

Steps to Reproduce: 
CMakeLists.txt
---------------
cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 2.8.0)

add_custom_target(tgt)
set_target_properties(tgt PROPERTIES emptyprop "")
get_target_property(val tgt emptyprop)
message("val = ${val}")
---------------

Old Behaviour
---------------
[branch@viter on /dev/pts/9] 1044 ~/tmp/cm31bug/build
$ cmake --version
cmake version 2.8.12.2
[branch@viter on /dev/pts/9] 1045 ~/tmp/cm31bug/build
$ cmake ..
val = 
-- Configuring done
-- Generating done
-- Build files have been written to: /local/home/branch/tmp/cm31bug/build
----------------

New Behaviour
----------------
$ cmake --version
cmake version 3.1.0
