Allow empty messages and terms #91

Description

@stasm

Right now the following are syntax errors:

# Terms must have a value.
-term =
# Messages must have a value or at least one attribute.
message =

I wonder if it would make sense to make them valid syntax, even if they aren't valid translations. I'd expect tools like compare-locales to report errors about them and Pontoon to treat them as untranslated. But it might be useful to write down a list of identifiers to fill in later on and not have your editor throw errors on each line at you.

(Low priority food for thought.)
