command/meta_backend: Allow the remote backend to have no workspaces [again]

A regression introduced in d72a413ef8

The comment explains, but TLDR: The remote backend actually *depended*
on being able to write it's backend state even though an 'error'
occurred (no workspaces).

// are no workspaces, the output to the user saying that there are none and
// the user should create one with 'workspace new' takes the form of an
// error message - even though it's happy path, expected behavior.
//
// Therefore, only return nil with errored diags for everything else, and
// allow the remote backend to continue and write its configuration to state
// even though no workspace is selected.
