According to the 'JSON Mapping' section in the proto3 Language guide found here: https://developers.google.com/protocol-buffers/docs/proto3#json It is mentioned that NULL repeated fields should be converted to an empty list. Currently protobuf2json-c does not convert a NULL repeated field to JSON (it simply ignores it). This patch updates the library to ensure that NULL repeated fields are converted to empty JSON lists.
