commit: --amend -m '' silently fails to wipe message

`git commit --amend -m ''` seems to be an unambiguous request to blank a
commit message, but it actually leaves the commit message as-is.  That's
the case regardless of whether `--allow-empty-message` is specified, and
doesn't so much as drop a non-zero return code.

Add failing tests to show this behaviour.
