Administrator requested to merge backend-dry-run/rvt/no-text-pat-info-4 into main

There is inline logic to check whether a pattern is "empty". What this is really checking is that the absence of a pattern and file patterns returns no results, when we run a text search. Removing this naively breaks things.

This PR promotes this logic and removes the inline check.
