Add case for version variable being empty

[kprosise]

While not the cause of the publishing error, which seems to have been a CI issue, this addresses instances where MP_UPDATE_VERSION is an empty string.This change leads to the docs still being published if the version variable is empty, defaulting to "latest" for the docker and manifest url replacements in the docs.

Viewed rendered docs for intended rendering across multiple cases.
