TINKERPOP-1409 Print no result line if empty.result.indicator is empty
string.
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TINKERPOP-1409
This seems like a better use of the empty string setting than to actually
just print an empty string line.
```text
gremlin> graph = TinkerGraph.open()
==>tinkergraph[vertices:0 edges:0]
gremlin> graph.close()
==>null
gremlin> graph = TinkerGraph.open()
==>tinkergraph[vertices:0 edges:0]
gremlin> :set empty.result.indicator ""
gremlin> graph.close()
gremlin>
```
Pretty small change, but, I didn't CTR this in case someone didn't really
like this behavior. If there are -1s I can just kill this and close the JIRA
currently hanging out there as I only kept it open because I saw this dangling
issue I wanted to implement.

> Project: TinkerPop
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: console
> Affects Versions: 3.2.1
> Reporter: Jeremy Hanna
>
> A common question among new users is what is with the "null" return String in
> the console when there is a successful execution. An explanation is in the
> docs now (see note at bottom of
> http://tinkerpop.apache.org/docs/current/reference/#_mutating_the_graph
> section) but it would be nice to avoid it or make it more immediately
> understandable for new users.
> It's not a huge deal, but often comes up as a question from new users.
