cherry-pick: handle root commits with external strategies
The merge-recursive strategy already handles root commits; it cherry-picks the difference between the empty tree and the root commit's tree. However, for external strategies, we dereference NULL and segfault while building the argument list. Instead, let's handle this by passing the empty tree sha1 to the merge script.
