Fixed 7009359: HS with -XX:+AggressiveOpts optimize new StringBuffer(null) so it does not throw NPE as expected
StringConcat optimization replace new StringBuffer(null).toString()
with new String("null") because new StringBuffer.append(null) is
producing such string. Passing null to StringBuffer constructor
is a special case which was not checked.
Bailout StringConcat optimization if null is passed to
StringBuffer constructor. Added regression test.
