bug#74709: [PATCH] Avoid empty unique qualifier in buffer name

[Manuel Giraud]

Tags: patch

Hi,

This patch prevents from having an empty unique qualifier in the buffer
name.  Maybe this could happen with others file buffer as well but, most
of the time, you could witness it with Dired buffer in homedir.  Here is
a recipe:

  - emacs -Q
  - C-x d /ssh:somewhere: ;; This buffer is named "~</ssh:somewhere:>"
  - C-x d /~/             ;; This buffer is named "~<>"

With this patch, the last buffer will simply be named "~" instead.
