SRT parser cannot handle empty captions. #6

If there is a double empty line, this should indicate that the caption slot is empty. Software such as Camtasia will generate SRTs with such empty slots.

The a more compatible behaviour would be to parse them as captions with empty content.

Had a stab at fixing here: https://github.com/glut23/webvtt-py/pull/9
