[Bug]: The modifier spanGaps seems to convert empty cells to the value 0. (chart linked to MD table) #55

Describe the bug

Using a chart linked to a markdown table, spanGaps seems to convert empty cells to the value 0.

Instead, it should just ignore the empty cell.

Relevant errors (if available)

No response

Steps to reproduce

  1. Create a markdown table with some values and some empty cells.
  2. Add a block link to the table.
  3. Add a chart and link it to the table.
  4. Add the option spanGaps to the chart.
  5. The chart displays empty cells as 0.
  6. Put the word "null" into the empty cells, and spanGaps works as it should - except that nobody would put "null" into empty cells.

Expected Behavior

spanGaps should ignore empty cells and treat them as "null".
