Subject: [PATCH] Fix empty Language-Specific Guidance header in system prompt

When a Rust-only workspace was detected, the Language-Specific Guidance
header was appearing with no content because Rust has an empty prompt
string (agent-specific prompts handle Rust instead).

The fix filters out empty prompt strings in get_language_prompts_for_workspace()
so the header only appears when there's actual guidance content.

Added test to verify Rust-only workspaces return None.
