Add support for null value handling for blocking fields in the decision rules file #101

We have a requirement to block on a specific field but the field is nullable and we have multiple records with null values for the field, this slows down the application because the patient matching logic ends up comparing all the patients with null values for the field.

It would be nice to allow an implementation to specify the null handling behavior for blocking fields in the decision rules file.
