Allows slugs to be empty

Description

This PR allows slugs to be empty. The use case being entities like a homepage.

I'm pretty new to the Twill Vue setup so not sure if the changes are how you would want to go about this.

I've marked this as a draft because I was unable to generate the dist assets. When I ran yarn build I got a large number of Syntax Error: TypeError: token.type.endsWith is not a function in files I haven't changed, what am I doing wrong?

Hey @freshleafmedia,

Forgive me if I am mistaken, but I believe this is not needed.

You can set

class BlogController extends BaseModuleController
{
    protected $moduleName = 'blogs';

    protected $indexOptions = [
        'permalink' => false,
    ];
}

Then the field will not be shown.

That would disable all permalinks for that model, what I want is to have permalinks which are optionally empty.

To expand on my use case a little, I have a Pages Capsule and each page has permalink except the homepage which I want to be just / aka an empty permalink

Interesant use case, but I think it's opinionated for the project.

I would create an additional checkbox with the 'Homepage' value, and in the repository, with the prepareFieldsBeforeSave method I would overwrite the permalink value to the / (quick fix).

It's really up to you to serve the homepage, Twill treats all slugs the same.
