We know we will find nothing.
This incidentally squelches false warning from gcc about potentially
uninitialized usage of t.entry fields. For an empty tree, it is true that
init_tree_desc() does not call decode_tree_entry() and the tree_desc is
left uninitialized, but find_tree_entry() only calls tree_entry_extract()
that uses the tree_desc while it has more things to read from the tree, so
the uninitialized t.entry fields are never used in such a case anyway.
