hellofromTonya d345fe2e69 Code Modernization: Fix "passing null to non-nullable" deprecation in wpdb::_real_escape().
The PHP native `mysqli_real_escape_string()` function expects to be passed a string as the second parameter and this is not a nullable parameter.

Passing `null` to it will result in a `mysqli_real_escape_string(): Passing null to parameter #2 ($string) of type string is deprecated` notice on PHP 8.1.

Previously, an input type check was put in place to prevent fatal errors on PHP 8.0 when an array, object or resource was passed. Changeset [48980].

A `null` value was explicitly excluded from that check, even though a `null` value being passed would only ever result in an empty string anyway.

This commit changes the previous input type check to also bow out early for `null` values and to automatically return an empty string for those.

Follow-up to [48980].
