Fix overly-strict assertions in spgtextproc.c.
spg_text_inner_consistent is capable of reconstructing an empty string
to pass down to the next index level; this happens if we have an empty
string coming in, no prefix, and a dummy node label. (In practice, what
is needed to trigger that is insertion of a whole bunch of empty-string
values.) Then, we will arrive at the next level with in->level == 0
and a non-NULL (but zero length) in->reconstructedValue, which is valid
but the Assert tests weren't expecting it.
Per report from Andreas Seltenreich. This has no impact in non-Assert
builds, so should not be a problem in production, but back-patch to
all affected branches anyway.
In passing, remove a couple of useless variable initializations and
shorten the code by not duplicating DatumGetPointer() calls.
