Add --force-empty-vectors option (#5653)

Browse Source 
The rationale for this option is that JSON clients typically want empty arrays (i.e [] in the JSON) instead of missing properties, but not empty strings when the value isn't set.
--force-empty is kept as-is, i.e. it will force both empty strings and vectors.
