Description
Hello, thank you for this crate, I use it a lot. (a lot, and out of just deserializing csv actually).
Thank you for taking the time to answer.
#### What version of the `csv` crate are you using?
1.2.2
#### Briefly describe the question, bug or feature request.
I wonder if it is possible to deserialize an empty vec.
#### Include a complete program demonstrating a problem.
Taking directly from the documentation [here](https://docs.rs/csv/latest/csv/struct.Reader.html#rules)
```
#[test]
fn example() -> Result<(), Box> {
let data = "foo";
let mut rdr = ReaderBuilder::new()
.has_headers(false)
.from_reader(data.as_bytes());
let mut iter = rdr.deserialize();
if let Some(result) = iter.next() {
let record: Row = result?;
assert_eq!(
record,
Row {
label: "foo".to_string(),
values: vec![],
}
);
Ok(())
}
}
```
#### What is the observed behavior of the code above?
I edited a little bit your example in the Rules section, because I am working on a case where the list can be empty.
#### What is the expected or desired behavior of the code above?
I would like to see a
```
Row {
label: "foo".to_string(),
values: vec![],
}
```
