Adding support for empty sets based on #386. (Note: As of now, this is slightly different than the behavior defined in #386 - instead of removing just the matcher, the entire rule is removed to keep the semantics of the ruleset the same. I added more details in the comment there, but of course happy to switch this to the original plan.)
Previously, having any matcher with an empty set caused an error and the entire ruleset was rejected. Now, we treat the matcher with an empty set as a no-op (always false) and remove any rule that contains a matcher with an empty set (as the rule would always evaluate to false). We alert the user to this by sending a warning for each rule that will be ignored.
