The zero length empty string returned by the static method StringImpl ::empty() should be created as an 8 bit string. This will help performance when concatenated with other strings.

Created attachment 117968 [details] Patch This patch provides no performance benefit by itself, but allows for future changes that concat null strings to use an 8 bit path.
