Update ComponentUtilities.php, updated method accept "null" value for second parameter

[viliusvsx]

Sometimes I update variables with null values. Without this PR, I get an error, that I cannot pass the null value in the "updated" method

P.S. I don't think that test is failing because of my PR.

Good point. Let me check the Livewire Core code, but shouldn't be an issue to merge this bit in.

I will be separating this bit out so that it's a bit more maintainable, but that's on my to-do list rather than anything else

Will need to test it, but may make it into the next release, worth noting that you should check if it's "null", before checking it it's equal to "", just to avoid any Exceptions being thrown!

NOTE: Changing base to "develop", as that's where things get merged in

Having swiftly reviewed the PR, I think there's a better way, which is to advance a pending update:

So the present chunk of code relating to "search" in the updated() method in ComponentUtilities is replaced with this in "WithSearch":

    public function updatedSearch(string|array|null $value): void
    {
        $this->resetComputedPage();

        // Clear bulk actions on search
        $this->clearSelected();
        $this->setSelectAllDisabled();

        if (is_null($value) || $value === '') {
            $this->clearSearch();
        }
    }

This way, we segregate off the "updated()" logic into the relevant Trait.

Unless you have any objection, I'll use the above approach to get the fix in. Please do reach out on the official Discord if you want to discuss it further!
