allow empty string arguments (#9420)
# Description

I'm not sure if this is a good idea or now but I did it to fix #9418. It
allows you to pass empty string arguments like this.

file named foo.nu
```
def main [--arg: string = dog] {
  if ($arg | is-empty) {
    echo "empty string"
  } else {
   echo $arg
  }
}
```
`> nu foo.nu --arg ""`
or
`> nu foo.nu --arg=""`
this gives an error
`> nu foo.nu --arg`
this returns the default argument
`> nu foo.nu`

closes #9418

clippy::needless_collect -A clippy::result_large_err` to check that
you're using the standard code style
- `cargo test --workspace` to check that all tests pass
- `cargo run -- crates/nu-std/tests/run.nu` to run the tests for the
standard library
