With the current configuration, if we pass a null value to clear the constraint field and make it null, the field is ommitted and thus no changes are made. With this change, we update the field to remove omitempty, which allows us to send a null value to the field, thus clearing it when it's empty. Critical part of the fix here: e-breuninger/terraform-provider-netbox#432

Every run of the `netbox_permission` resource when there was no
constraint set would output the following diff:
```
netbox_permission.ipaddress_rw_permission will be updated in-place
~ resource "netbox_permission" "ipaddress_rw_permission" {
- constraints = "null" -> null
id = "3"
name = "ipaddress_rw_permissions"
```
There are inherently two issues that cause the problem. We cannot null
the field, because of the issue fixed here:
fbreckle/go-netbox#30
Second, want the constraint field to be set to an empty string when
a read of constraint is empty. So we check if nil, and if so we
set constraint to "", and then return the function. Otherwise, we
Marshal it to JSON to fill the tf state.
