qapi: Permit omitting all flat union branches

Absent flat union branches default to the empty struct (since commit
800877bb16 "qapi: allow empty branches in flat unions").  But an
attempt to omit all of them is rejected with "Union 'FOO' has no
branches".  Harmless oddity, but it's easy to avoid, so do that.
