Remove `kw::Empty` uses from `rustc_middle`.

There are several places in `rustc_middle` that check for an empty
lifetime name. These checks appear to be totally unnecessary, because
empty lifetime names aren't produced here. (Empty lifetime names *are*
possible in `hir::Lifetime`. Perhaps there was some confusion between
it and the `rustc_middle` types?)

This commit removes the `kw::Empty` checks.
