git-rebase.txt: update description of --allow-empty-message
Commit b00bf1c9a8dd ("git-rebase: make --allow-empty-message the default", 2018-06-27) made --allow-empty-message the default and thus turned --allow-empty-message into a no-op but did not update the documentation to reflect this. Update the documentation now, and hide the option from the normal -h output since it is not useful. Signed-off-by: Elijah Newren <newren@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

--allow-empty-message::
- By default, rebasing commits with an empty message will fail.

+ No-op. Rebasing commits with an empty message used to fail
+ and this option would override that behavior, allowing commits
+ with empty messages to be rebased. Now commits with an empty
+ message do not cause rebasing to halt.
