Commit: Mattias Engdegård <address@hidden>

    Allow empty argument to `regexp-opt-charset'
    
    * test/lisp/emacs-lisp/regexp-opt-tests.el (regexp-opt-charset):
    Handle nil argument, and use regexp-quote for singletons.
    * lisp/emacs-lisp/regexp-opt.el (regexp-opt-charset): Expand tests.
