Fix list_copy_head() with empty Lists
list_copy_head() given an empty List would crash from trying to
dereference the List to obtain its length. Since NIL is how we represent
an empty List, we should just be returning another empty List in this
case.
list_copy_head() is new to v16, so let's fix it now before too many people
start coding around the buggy NIL behavior.
