fix: treat empty string as unset for chat.defaultAgent setting

When users run 'q settings chat.defaultAgent ""' to reset their default
agent (as documented), the empty string was being treated as a valid
agent name, causing an error message on every chat session start.

This change treats empty strings as 'no default set', allowing users
to cleanly reset to the built-in default agent without error messages.

Fixes the misleading behavior described in the AWS documentation where
setting an empty string should reset to built-in default silently.

Includes test to verify empty string handling behavior.
