I'm uncomfortable with this idea. It makes invoking the log message func
with 0 commit items mean "don't ask the user, but give me a message if it
was specified by some other means" or something like that. That's not
documented in the API and I don't think we can introduce such a change and
be compatible.

Also, to be honest, I think it is very hacky. Why not just make the
cmdline client check that -F or -m weren't specified when an operation was
invoking without an URL? I don't think libsvn_client should ask for a
message unless it really wants one.
