Would it makes sense to split off that no-op as a separate patch?

No note present, but the node for one is.  This skips insertion of
empty notes, for consistency with:

The note-present case, where the combine_notes() function can
return a null sha1 to request that a note be removed.

The more usual no-note-present case.  Again, this skips insertion
of empty notes.

Do I understand correctly that the point of the main point of
this patch is to allow combine_notes() functions to request
that a note be deleted?  If so, it would be nice if the commit
message said so.

Regardless, for what it's worth,
