nixos/systemd-lib: fix building of empty unit files

This is a fixup for c1ae82f448b10b278dc77e02518775175b463a27.

nix' `passAsFile` does not create empty files for variables that are
`null`.

This results in the following error for units that have no overrides or
content, but are, e.g. `wantedBy`:
`mv: cannot stat '': No such file or directory`.

Minimal reproducer:
`systemd.units.empty.wantedBy = [ "multi-user.target" ];`

This is often necessary when a unit is loaded in via `systemd.packages`.
