am: don't infloop for an empty input file

git-am.sh's check_patch_format function would attempt to preview
the patch to guess its format, but would go into an infinite loop
when the patch file happened to be empty.  The solution: exit the
loop when "read" fails, not when the line var, "$l1" becomes empty.
