The user @jokea noticed that the following line of code into
replication.c made little sense:

    addReplySds(slave,sdsempty());

Investigating a bit I found that this was introduced by commit 6208b3a7
three years ago in the early stages of Redis. The code apparently is not
useful at all, so I'm removing it.

This change will not be backported into 2.4 so that in the rare case
this should introduce a bug, we'll have a chance to detect it into the
development branch. However following the code path it seems like the
code is not useful at all, so the risk is truly small.
