Subject: [PATCH] Skip checking empty filenames for result collectors

On Java 25 the semantic of checking existance for empty filenames has been changed.
See https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8024695
The old behaviour was used in JMeter to skip empty filenames in result collectors.
This patch should resolve the bug while maintaining backwards compatibility.

This should fix #6611.
