Empty list erroneously converted to empty dict in `values` argument

[CobaltCause]

This code:

import asyncio

from databases import Database


async def amain():
    db = Database(
        # a url
    )

    await db.connect()

    query = """
        SELECT
            *
        FROM things
        WHERE
            things.id IN :ids
    """

    # the empty list here causes problems
    x = await db.fetch_all(query, values={"ids": []})
    
    # do stuff with x


def main():
    asyncio.run(amain())

I expected the query to run successfully and x to be an empty list.

Oh, even if this coercion didn't happen, https://github.com/encode/databases/issues/286 would be hit. Further, it turns out that just changing things.id IN :ids to things.id = ANY(:ids) makes it work as-is. Both of these things should probably get documented prominently somewhere.

databases should support the IN clause as it is elementary SQL and is compatible with sqlalchemy as well. Users who use IN also get presented a meaningless error which doesn't help. I also got tripped on this error.
