When "add -p" parses diffs, it looks for context lines starting with a
single space. But when diff.suppressBlankEmpty is in effect, an empty
context line will omit the space, giving us a true empty line. This
confuses the parser, which is unable to split based on such a line.

It's tempting to say that we should just make sure that we generate a
diff mbox series

Patch

diff without that option.  However, although we do not parse hunks that
the user has manually edited with parse_diff() we do allow the user
to split such hunks. As POSIX calls the decision of whether to print the
space here "implementation-defined" we need to handle edited hunks where
empty context lines omit the space.

So let's handle both cases: a context line either starts with a space or
consists of a totally empty line by normalizing the first character to a
space when we parse them. Normalizing the first character rather than
changing the code to check for a space or newline will hopefully future
proof against introducing similar bugs if the code is changed.
