When an `environment` isn't explicitly provided by the user's config, we used to
default this to `null` in `parsePluginOptions` which is called right at the
start of the Babel plugin. These parsed options were then being passed to zod,
which was expecting an object type, not null.
Zod can reify a default config based on the schema, if an empty object is passed
in. So by changing our default value to `{}` this should fix the compiler
bailing out incorrectly on valid compiler options
Test plan: tested this manually on the external repo by modifying node_modules
