Empty list pattern incorrectly used causes an endless loop

[adabe588@…]

This causes infinite loop of error messages when trying to match a function against {}.
Should halt at the first type error.
If debug flags aren't present it loops silently.

package PatternMatchInvalidType

partial function Nothing
end Nothing;

function nothing
algorithm
end nothing;

public function test1
  input Nothing n;
algorithm
  _ := match(n)
    case ({}) then ();
    else fail();
  end match;
end test1;

public function test
algorithm
  test1(nothing);
end test;

end PatternMatchInvalidType;

setCommandLineOptions({"+d=rml,noevalfunc,failtrace","+g=MetaModelica","+showAnnotations","+showErrorMessages"});

loadFile("PatternMatchInvalidType.mo");
getErrorString();
// Result:
// true
// ""
// endResult

PatternMatchInvalidType.test();
getErrorString();

{true,true,true,true}
true
""

... and so on
