The change in zonemaster#203 introduced a new() function in the Zonemaster::LDNS::RRList module. However, calling new() with a ref to an empty array as paramater caused the code to croak with the error message "List is empty". However, there are situations where it may be desirable to construct such an empty RRList. This commit ensures that Zonemaster::LDNS::RRList->new([]) works as intended.
Modify the XS code so that Zonemaster::LDNS::RRList::new() can be called with zero arguments, which is equivalent to passing it an empty arrayref.

Let’s make sure that new() and new([]) have the same semantics, and that the eq operator works correctly in both ways with these empty lists.

Purpose
This PR addresses a design oversight in the constructor for Zonemaster::LDNS::RRList objects. It was for now assumed that it would always be used to construct nonempty RRList objects, but a PR in Zonemaster-Engine elicited the need for exactly that use case.
Context
Follow-up to #203; review of zonemaster/zonemaster-engine#1383.
Changes
Allow calling Zonemaster::LDNS::RRList::new() with either no argument or an empty arrayref.
How to test this PR
Unit tests were added, and should therefore pass.
