Don't keep filters:: {}

What Happened?

When I filter linked references and then reset filters again, a block with filters:: {} remains at the top, adding unnecessary noise to the page.

Sometimes it's a grey Properties block, sometimes it actually shows filters:: {} (I've seen this inconsistency before, but I'm not sure how to reproduce it). In any case, the dummy block should be removed altogether.

Reproduce the Bug

1. Create page A, reference [[B]]
2. Open B
3. Filter A in the linked references
4. Revert the filter
5. Check that the first block now contains a dummy filters block.

Expected Behavior

Remove metadata that's not necessary.

Current property handling involves string handling. This will be resolved when the db version is merged.

Ok, there still is the issue about inconsistency, that sometimes the first block is shown as greyed out Properties, but sometimes it will show the actual filters:: {} content. I've seen this behavior many times, with this and other properties as well. Maybe that will be fixed then too.

I think the first time the property is added Logseq will explicitly show the contents of the block. If you reload the page and afterwards it will show "Properties" greyed out.
