Bootcoordinator in Testnet / Rinkeby is forging empty batches (batches with no transactions on it) . But the config is defined to not forge it

No forging empty batches.

Setup a hermez node in testnet, use the same config file and monitoring it.

This is the result of the investigation for this problem:

boot coordinator was not forging batches
when the slot owner does not forge batches, anyone can forge
another node in the network with configuration to forge batches without tx was forging

TLDR: this is not a bug, it's a feature! 😄
