Check the Template::Manual::VMethods docs and search for the 'list' method:
list
Return the value as a single element list. This can be
useful if you have a variable which may contain a single item or a
list and you want to treat them equally. The 'list' method can be
called against a list reference and will simply return the original
reference, effectively a no-op.
[% thing.list.size %] # thing can be a scalar or a list
