qemu-config: Accept empty option values

Currently it is impossible to set an option in a config file to an empty
string, because the parser matches only lines containing non-empty
strings between double-quotes.

As sscanf() "[" conversion specifier only matches non-empty strings, add
a special case for empty strings.
