36998	firstof tag doesn't require an argument when used with as var	Lily	Shubh Rai	"The `{% firstof %}` template tag raises a `TemplateSyntaxError(""'firstof' statement requires at least one argument"")` when called with no arguments.

However, when called with exactly two arguments that match the variable capturing syntax (e.g. `{% firstof as foo %}`) no error is raised and the `FirstOfNode` is returned with an empty `vars` list (and an `asvar` of e.g. `foo`). It would be consistent to raise a `TemplateSyntaxError(""'firstof' statement requires at least one argument before 'as'"")` here.
