Early drafts of the ACME spec said that clients should retrieve their existing account information by POSTing the empty JSON object `{}` to their account URL. This instruction was removed in the final version of ACME, replaced by the concept of POST-as-GET, which uses a wholly empty body to accomplish the same goal. However, Boulder has continued to incidentally support this behavior: when we receive an empty JSON object, our `updateAccount` code in the RA applies their desired diff (none) on top of their current account, writes it back to the database, and returns the updated account object...which hasn't actually changed. This behavior is also half-tested by `TestEmptyAccount`, but that test is actually testing that the MockRA implements the same behavior as the real RA; it's not truly testing the WFE's behavior.
This PR changes the WFE to explicitly treat receiving the empty JSON object as a request to retrieve the account data unchanged, rather than implicitly relying on internal details of the RA's account-update logic, which are expected to change in #7827.
