You're right. If an empty index can produce an empty tree, then an
index full of i-t-a entries should also be able to produce an empty
tree.

git-commit not failing when --allow-empty is not given is another
(known) problem, where it miscounts the number of real index entries.
It's not right to "fix" it in here.

I'll deal with that separately. Let's focus on cache-tree only this
time. So how about this on top?
