Subject: [PATCH 2/6] main: Do not update the display on backspace when there
 is no input to remove

On machines with a slow CPU (Atom) and a highres screen drawing the
diskcrypt dialog may take longer then the keyrepeat speed, this leads to
a long delay before showing keypresses when doing the following:

1) Type long password
2) Realize it is wrong, press + hold backspace
   the key-repeat will now generate backspace key presses faster then we
   process them as main.c does an update_display for each press
3) Users releases backspace when we've processed input-length backspace
   key-presses, but since we were drawing slower then key-presses were
   coming in many more backspace keypresses are in the keyboard buffer
4) User types first character of the right password, this shows up up to
   a couple of seconds later because first we are still processing all
   the queued up backspace presses and doing a redraw for each.

This commit fixes this by skipping the redraws in on_backspace when there
is no more input left in the input buffer.
