JsonPatchDocument: empty json of patch operation causes exception in ApplyTo

### Describe the bug
When sending an empty json-patch operation (e.g. `[ { } ]`) the request is not rejected due to a malformed json but it get's deserialized and throws an exception in the `JsonPatchDocument.ApplyTo()` method which is neither expected not documented.

### To Reproduce
[Minimum working example](https://github.com/StefanOssendorf/MWE-EmptyJsonPatchOperationThrowsException)

Create an api-controller action:
```csharp
public ActionResult Patch(JsonPatchDocument patchDoc) {
var origFoo = new Foo();

patchDoc.ApplyTo(origFoo, ModelState); // this throws an unexpected exception
}

public class Foo {
public String Name { get; set; }
}
```

Now make a request to your action with the payload `[ { } ]`.

### Exceptions (if any)
```csharp
Microsoft.AspNetCore.Diagnostics.DeveloperExceptionPageMiddleware: Error: An unhandled exception has occurred while executing the request.
