rs.compareOpTimes() throws exception when comparing with empty OpTime

      This is causing a lot of exceptions to be thrown in tests that look like errors but are really expected behavior. If we want an exception to be thrown, an empty optime should be a special case with a different message or at least the error should print the optimes. An example is here:
      https://logkeeper.mongodb.org/build/7372a5210d84ad648172a4ad21da6892/test/582a3e90be07c4674504e874#L436

      The following throws an exception, when the empty OpTime should probably just be considered earlier.

      rs.compareOpTimes({ts: Timestamp(1,2), t:3}, {ts:Timestamp(0,0), t: -1});
