[PATCH] Bad file descriptor on filtering empty files

In git 2.2.0 (also tested on 2.2.0.65.g9abc44b), if an external
smudge/clean filter is called on an empty file git reports something
like:
error: copy-fd: read returned Bad file descriptor
error: cannot feed the input to external filter cat
error: external filter cat failed

Test case:

mkdir bug
cd bug
git init
git config filter.cat.clean cat
git config filter.cat.smudge cat
echo '* filter=cat' >.gitattributes
touch a
git add a


This started in 9035d75a2be9d80d82676504d69553245017f6d4, which
introduced the possible call to copy_fd in code called from
apply_filter.  It appears that NULL as the src argument to apply_filter
is being used both as a sentinel value to indicate that the fd should be
used instead and also as a representation of the contents of an empty
file.  I suggest switching to using fd == -1 as the sentinel as shown in
the patch below.

Thanks,
Will
