As a general principle, we should not use "git diff" to validate the
results of what git command that is being tested has done. We would not
know if we are testing the command in question, or locating a bug in the
cute hack of "git diff --no-index".
Rather use test_cmp for that purpose.

When e-mail address is empty (e.g. "A U Thor <>"), --pretty=format
misparsed the commit header and did not pick up the date field correctly.
Noticed by Marco, fixed slightly differently with additional sanity
check and with a test.

This changes the interporate() to replace entries with NULL values
by the empty string, and uses it to interpolate missing fields in
custom format output used in git-log and friends. It is most useful
to avoid <unknown> output from %b format for a commit log message
that lack any body text.

There are two breakages in the %P/%p interpolation. It appended
an excess SP at the end of the list, and it gave uninitialized
contents of a buffer on the stack for root commits.
This fixes it, while updating the t6006 test which expected the
wrong output.

These could stand to be a little more complex, but it should
at least catch obvious problems (like the recently fixed %ct
bug).
