Show "<nil>" for nil Stringer. #854

  1. Show "<nil>" for nil Stringer.

    In encodeStringer, instead of returning an error when a panic
    occurs when calling String() on a nil pointer, use the string value
    "<nil>" like the fmt package does.
    
    It is not always possible to handle this case by fixing the
    implementation of String to not panic. This requires implementing
    String with a pointer receiver, which doesn't work if you need to
    be able to call String on non-addressable values.
