Fix the unexpected error that occurs when an empty control block is u…

…sed.

Fixes： #146

When the first control block is empty or comment, the correct result will now be rendered.

```python
from mako.template import Template
template = r"""
% if False:
% elif False:
% else:
    test
% endif
"""

t = Template(template)
print(t.render())
```

Result:
```

    test

```
