mtest: TAP: ignore empty lines

According to http://testanything.org/tap-specification.html

"Any output line that is not a version, a plan, a test line, a
diagnostic or a bail out is considered an “unknown” line. A TAP parser
is required to not consider an unknown line as an error but may
optionally choose to capture said line and hand it to the test
harness, which may have custom behavior attached [...] TAP::Harness
reports TAP syntax errors at the end of a test run".

(glib gtest can generate empty lines)
