If no validated models exist, RAVE should either fail with a descriptive error message or generate an empty implementation

[ZacSweers]

Otherwise compilation just fails saying it can't find the generated RAVE file without any real context.

FWIW, my vote is a warning + empty container. We can tack on an extra interface "isEmpty" or something to tell the upstream validator to skip it. We have cases where we generate models and don't actually know if there won't be non-validating models in them

I just ran into this in a new project, would be great to just generate an empty one - it took quite some time to figure this out.

I can look into this. @tonycosentini @behroozkhorashadi feel free to mark me as the assignee.

[ZacSweers]

@naturalwarren no one can assign you because you're not in the uber org

[naturalwarren]

Punting this for now.
