We had a notion of an empty tablet in the runtime, signified by [=] but didn't actually have support for it in the compiler's parser.

Adding this should have been straight forward, but it forced us to deal with the difference between lists and tablets a bit more systematically. The previous approach of representing a tablet as a list of pairs was cute, but dealing with them properly actually simplified the code.

The literal [=] is now supported by the Technique compiler.
