Make org-capture use `org-default-notes-file' if the file is not specified

* lisp/org-macs.el (org-string-nw-p): New function.
* lisp/org-capture.el (org-capture-import-remember-templates): Interpret
an empty string as request to use `org-default-notes-file'.
(org-capture-target-buffer): If the FILE is not a (non-empty) string,
use `org-default-notes-file'.
