Valentin Shergin 2a80579ea1 Fabric: Checking for nullptr before calling CFRelease in ManagedObjectWrapper
Summary:
ManagedObjectWrapper (`wrapManagedObject`) is used to pass pointers managed by Objective-C runtime object thought C++ parts of the framework. The wrapper consists of a shared pointer to an object with a custom deleter that calls `CFRelease`.
Apparently, there is a caveat here: shared ptr implementation always calls a deleter even if the object points to `nullptr`. It's usually fine because in C++ calling `delete` on a nullptr is a no-op, not an error. But it's an error from the `CFRelease` perspective, which checks the pointer and crashes if it's nullptr.
