Remove ill-conceived ban on zero length json object keys.

We removed a similar ban on this in json_object recently, but the ban in
datum_to_json was left, which generate4d sprutious errors in othee json
generators, notable json_build_object.

Along the way, add an assertion that datum_to_json is not passed a null
key. All current callers comply with this rule, but the assertion will
catch any possible future misbehaviour.
