Research direction

Start with HybridFile#getName in HybridFile.java at line 336 and trace its call from Operations$1.doInBackground in Operations.java at line 122. Use the supplied Android crash path as the reproduction context, and verify that the UI operation no longer crashes when the DocumentFile reference is null.
