Description

A conformance test covering a situation where JS expression returns `undefined` might be useful. Currently, the seven bridges executor treats JS result of `undefined` as `null` and proceeds. Not sure if that is the right thing to do. Perhaps a clarification in the spec should go as well?

Research direction

Start by reviewing the seven bridges executor's handling of a JavaScript result of `undefined` and the existing conformance-test structure. Confirm the intended behavior in the specification, then add a conformance case and document the clarified result handling so the test and spec agree.
