EachLike should allow a minimum of 0

See original GitHub issue

The EachLike matching helper has a keyword argument minimum that defaults to 1 and can not be lower than 1. However, many of our APIs return empty object arrays. Would it be possible to support a minimum=0 setting? Or some other flag that indicates the array can be empty?

Yeah, you can 😃 at least this is valid for me in the Go SDK

eachLike(map[string]interface{}{
	"foo":  "buzz",
	"bar": 10,
}, 0)

Having reflected, my comment yesterday is a bit silly, because Pact will obviously only validate the content of the attribute if it is specified, so it is not reliable. Also having read this article it makes more sense.
