77e9e1ed91 libexpr: Fix prim_replaceStrings() to work on an empty source string
Otherwise, running e.g.

nix-instantiate --eval -E --strict 'builtins.replaceStrings [""] ["X"] "abc"'

would just hang in an infinite loop.

Found by afl-fuzz.

First attempt of this was reverted in e2d71bd186 because it caused
another infinite loop, which is fixed now and a test added.

Revert "libexpr: Fix prim_replaceStrings() to work on an empty source string"
This reverts commit 4ea9707591.

It causes an infinite loop in Nixpkgs evaluation,
e.g. "nix-instantiate -A hello" hung.

PR #1886.
