cmd/tailscale/cli: fix configuring partially empty kubeconfig

When a user deletes the last cluster/user/context from their
kubeconfig via 'kubectl delete-[cluster|user|context] command,
kubectx sets the relevant field in kubeconfig to 'null'.
This was breaking our conversion logic that was assuming that the field
is either non-existant or is an array.
