Omit needless words ("Additionally ... <path> may also" is redundant).
While at it, place the explanation of this special case after the
general rules for paths to provide the reader with some context.

If an `LF` or double quote must be encoded into `<path>` shell-style
quoting should be used, e.g. `"path/with\n and \" in it"`.
-Additionally, in `040000` mode, `<path>` may also be an empty string
-(`""`) to specify the root of the tree.
-
The value of `<path>` must be in canonical form. That is it must not:
* contain an empty directory component (e.g. `foo//bar` is invalid),
* contain the special component `.` or `..` (e.g. `foo/./bar` and
`foo/../bar` are invalid).
+The root of the tree can be represented by an empty string as `<path>`.
+
It is recommended that `<path>` always be encoded using UTF-8.
