Remove WindowedValue.valueInEmptyWindows
A value in empty windows expands to no values, so it can be dropped at
any time, perhaps unintentionally. This has bitten runner authors, including
Spark & Dataflow.
While creating such a thing in memory is not automatically problematic, it
is also not really useful. So this change removes it.
