We can pass empty lists via tsconfig.json, so this just helps to lessen the disparity a bit. You get an empty list when a list-taking command is followed by another command or a single comma.

@yuit @mhegazy I think you both originally implemented list compiler options? So you should probably review this.

Shouldn't all 3 cases be errors? I don't think lib: [] is valid, so somebody along the line should throw an error.

I learned in offline discussion with @weswigham that lib: [] IS valid, so carry on! :)

What about requests for - to mean stdin/stdout?

Do we do that already? If so the simple fix is probably just to scan two characters (looking for any nonwhitespace character as the second) from the next argument string rather than just one. If we don't I could add such a check in preparation.

we decided it was too much majic. i would rather have --writeToSTDOut instead.
