gdbsupport: fix path_join crash with -std=c++17 and -D_GLIBCXX_DEBUG
When building GDB with -std=c++17 and -D_GLIBCXX_DEBUG=1, I get:
$ ./gdb -nx --data-directory=data-directory -q -ex "maint selftest path_join"
/usr/include/c++/11.2.0/string_view:233: constexpr const value_type& std::basic_string_view<_CharT, _Traits>::operator[](std::basic_string_view<_CharT, _Traits>::size_type) const [with _CharT = char; _Traits = std::char_traits<char>; std::basic_string_view<_CharT, _Traits>::const_reference = const char&; std::basic_string_view<_CharT, _Traits>::size_type = long unsigned int]: Assertion '__pos < this->_M_len' failed.
The problem is that we're passing an empty string_view to
IS_ABSOLUTE_PATH. IS_ABSOLUTE_PATH accesses [0] on that string_view,
which is out-of-bounds.
The reason this is not seen with -std less than c++17 is that our local
copy of string_view (used with C++ < 17) does not have the assert in
operator[], as that wouldn't work in a constexpr method:
https://gitlab.com/gnutools/binutils-gdb/-/blob/5890af36e5112bcbb8d7555e63570f68466e6944/gdbsupport/gdb_string_view.h#L180
IS_ABSOLUTE_PATH is normally used with null-terminated string. It's
fine to pass an empty null-terminated string to IS_ABSOLUTE_PATH,
because index 0 in such a string is valid. But not with an empty
string_view.
Fix that by avoiding the "call" to IS_ABSOLUTE_PATH if the string_view
is empty.
