Since `ErrorHandler#handleError()` expects an argument of type `any` it
should be able to handle values such as `null` and `undefined`.
Previously, it failed to handle these values, because it was trying to
access properties on them.
This commit fixes it by ensuring no properties are accessed on `null` or
`undefined` values.
