Before this change, optfeature() will print a list of optional dependencies, or nothing if deps are installed. Ebuilds commonly print their own elog ahead of optfeature, which then may not be followed up by any list at all.
This change adds a default header text, which may be changed by the ebuild,
that is only printed if optfeature is about to list at least one dependency.
