This is perfectly fine in the context of "git am", but as a public
function that is called is_empty_file(), callers can come from two
camps.  One is like the caller of this function in "am" where an
empty and a missing file are treated equivalently.  The other would
want to act differently.

Renaming it "is-empty-or-missing" is necessary in order to make it
clear that this helper function is not targetted for the latter
callers.
