fix(instrumentation-redis-4): avoid diag.error spam when configured c…

…lient URL is the empty string (#2399)

Issue #2389 showed that this instrumentation would crash on a Redis
client configured with {url: ''} (an empty string). The crash was
fixed in #2397. This change avoids the once-crashy code, and hence
the diag.error spam, by using the same guard before attempting to parse
the configured client URL that the Redis client itself does, if (options?.url),
