Wrong boundingbox values in GetCapabilities for empty layers

Description

For layers without any feature the bbox calculation for the GetCapabilities request is wrong. The result is some 'nonsense' bbox value. You can still use the wms layer with a correct bbox but QGIS fails to load groups (or the whole wms 'tree') with empty layers since the group bbox is wrong too.

I raised this bug in priority because it is annoying
underlying data change and a layer may become empty (no features in it) in the course of time as well as refilling again
I my case this box is returned:
<EX_GeographicBoundingBox>
<westBoundLongitude>6.42191</westBoundLongitude>
<eastBoundLongitude>6.42191</eastBoundLongitude>
<southBoundLatitude>89.9946</southBoundLatitude>
<northBoundLatitude>89.9946</northBoundLatitude>
</EX_GeographicBoundingBox>

Proposed solution: if layer delivers a bbox larger than the bbox set in the OWS server tab the bbox set in OWS server is returned (IMHO it does not make sense to have layers propagating larger bboxes than the project does)
