derivations: 'read-derivation' correctly handles case with empty hash.

Reported by Stephen Paul Weber <singpolyma@singpolyma.net> at
<https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/guix-devel/2023-01/msg00035.html>.

* guix/derivations.scm (read-derivation)[outputs->alist]: Treat the
empty hash case as non-fixed-output whether or not the hash algorithm is
the empty string, and preserve the hash algorithm in <derivation-output>.
* tests/derivations.scm ("'download' built-in builder, no fixed-output hash")
("fixed-output-derivation?, no hash", "read-derivation with hash = #f"): New tests.
