Correctly handle empty STOW_DIR (#5, #6)

Browse source 
In shell, a variable is often considered unset even if it is
set to the empty string.  In other words,

  STOW_DIR= stow [args]

is an idiomatic alternative to writing:

  unset STOW_DIR
  stow [args]

and it also has the advantage of temporarily "unsetting" STOW_DIR
for a single command.

Therefore we should treat STOW_DIR being set to the empty string
as equivalent to it not being set at all.

Thanks to Cuong Manh Le for highlighting this issue!
