Docs: clarify treatment of variadic functions with zero variadic arguments.
Explain that you have to use "VARIADIC ARRAY[]" to pass an empty arrayto a variadic parameter position. This was already implicit in the textbut it seems better to spell it out.Per a suggestion from David Johnston, though I didn't use his proposedwording. Back-patch to all supported branches.

Simply writing <literal>SELECT mleast()</> does not work because a

variadic parameter must match at least one actual argument.

(You could define a second function also named <literal>mleast</>,

with no parameters, if you wanted to allow such calls.)
