Fix ts_headline() edge cases for empty query and empty search text.
tsquery's GETQUERY() macro is only safe to apply to a tsquery that is known non-empty; otherwise it gives a pointer to garbage. Before commit 5a617d75d, ts_headline() avoided this pitfall, but only in a very indirect, nonobvious way. (hlCover could not reach its TS_execute call, because if the query contains no lexemes then hlFirstIndex would surely return -1.) After that commit, it fell into the trap, resulting in weird errors such as "unrecognized operator" and/or valgrind complaints. In HEAD, fix this by not calling TS_execute_locations() at all for an empty query. In the back branches, add a defensive check to hlCover() --- that's not fixing any live bug, but I judge the code a bit too fragile as-is. Also, both mark_hl_fragments() and mark_hl_words() were careless about the possibility of empty search text: in the cases where no match has been found, they'd end up telling mark_fragment() to mark from word indexes 0 to 0 inclusive, even when there is no word 0. This is harmless since we over-allocated the prs->words array, but it does annoy valgrind. Fix so that the end index is -1 and thus mark_fragment() will do nothing in such cases. Bottom line is that this fixes a live bug in HEAD, but in the back branches it's only getting rid of a valgrind nitpick. Back-patch anyway. Per report from Alexander Lakhin.
