Avoid a TypeError when initializing MergeRequest JS class with no arg

## What does this MR do?

Avoid a TypeError when initializing MergeRequest JS class with no arg.

## Are there points in the code the reviewer needs to double check?

No.

## Why was this MR needed?

Without this sane default you would get the following error when you
tried to instantiate a new MergeRequest object with no argument (i.e.
`new MergeRequest();`):
    
    TypeError: undefined is not an object (evaluating 'this.opts.action')

Fixes #13525.
