Description

From: https://github.com/palantir/http-remoting-api/blob/develop/errors/src/main/java/com/palantir/remoting/api/errors/SerializableError.java#L119

This shouldn't thrown an NPE if the call to .getValue() returns null (which can happen if the caller doesn't do something like Strings.nullToEmpty() on all possible values).

Research direction

Start in errors/src/main/java/com/palantir/remoting/api/errors/SerializableError.java at line 119 and inspect the SafeArgs value handling. Reproduce the case where getValue() returns null, then verify that SerializableError no longer throws an NPE for that input and run the relevant existing tests.
