fix(board): an empty held-back set renders a value, not a dangling colon

Browse source 
With nobody held back, fokus_utenfor= ended at a bare colon. sed could not
supply the placeholder it looked like it was supplying: given an empty string
there is no input line for the substitution to run on, so it silently did
nothing. That is the shape command_missing= exists to keep out of this format
- a field whose value carries nothing.

Zero repos mentioning a slug without declaring it is a real answer and now
looks like one. board-selftest 113 -> 114.
