Normally strings are encoded as length-then-utf8 in ECMA-335. But a null
String is encoded as just the byte 0xFF.
When we make a CustomAttributeBuilder for a MarshalAsAttribute and attach it to
some parameter we first encode the CAB as a byte blob and then decode it in
CAB.get_umarshal into a UnmanagedMarshal attribute. But the decoding didn't
account for the possibility of null strings.
Fixes #12747
