oci_load drops empty strings in cmd list #867
Description
The oci_load rule seems to drop empty strings from the cmd list. This doesn't happen with rules_docker container_image rule.
The empty string behavior is useful for Java libraries like JCommander that help parse command line args.
To reproduce
