   ### Search before asking
   
   - [X] I had searched in the 
[feature](https://github.com/apache/seatunnel/issues?q=is%3Aissue+label%3A%22Feature%22)
 and found no similar feature requirement.
   
   
   ### Description
   
   I think a nullFormat configuration option for file exports is  useful. This 
feature would allow users to specify how null values should be represented in 
the exported files. Here are the key benefits of supporting nullFormat:
   
   1. Data Consistency: Ensures that the exported data remains consistent and 
predictable across different systems.
   2. Compatibility: Makes the exported data compatible with various data 
processing tools and databases.
   3. Readability: Improves the readability of the data by using intuitive 
representations for null values.
   4. Data Cleaning: Helps standardize null value handling, simplifying data 
preprocessing.
   5. Error Handling: Prevents errors during data import by preprocessing null 
values
   
   I found a nullValue configuration in 
org.apache.seatunnel.format.text.TextSerializationSchema#TextSerializationSchema,
 but it is not being used.
