Since 93b0d86aaf (git-add: error out when given no arguments.,
2006-12-20) we display a message when no arguments are given to "git
add".
Part of that message was converted to advice in bf66db37f1 (add: use
advise function to display hints, 2020-01-07).
Following the same line of reasoning as in the previous commit, it is
sensible to use advise_if_enabled() here.
Therefore, use advise_if_enabled() in builtin/add.c to show the
ADVICE_ADD_EMPTY_PATHSPEC advice, and don't bother checking there the
visibility of the advice or displaying the instruction on how to disable
it.
Also add a test for these messages, in order to detect a possible
change in them.
