[pve-devel] [PATCH common v3 1/3] tools: add check_list_empty function

[Aaron Lauterer]

In some situations we don't want a total empty list. I opted for a
dedicated function instead of integrating it as error in the
`split_list` function. It is used in many places and the potential
fallout from unintended behavior changes is too big.
