Add JSpecify nullability annotations#175

Conversation
This change adds nullability annotations ([JSpecify](https://jspecify.dev)) to `packageurl-java` and modifies somes behavior. Specifically: - It marks with `@Nullable` all public methods that can return `null`. - It marks with `@Nullable` all method parameters that can have a `null` value **without** throwing any exception. - It modifies the behavior of the remaining parameters: passing `null` to those parameters will result in an NPE, instead of `MalformedPackageURLException`. This is at least a behavior change (minor version bump), but it _might_ be a breaking change.

@ppkarwasz this is likely one of the few types of dependencies I'm okay with for |

There was a problem hiding this comment.
The current Javadoc suggests that this method returns an empty map instead of null, so I changed the implementation…

Since one of the tests checks if all PackageURL getters return the same as the PackageURLBuilder getters, I introduced a behavioral change here too.
