BROOKLYN-538: add failing test
Adds a test that demonstrates
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BROOKLYN-538
I'm going to mark issue as "won't fix" for the following reasons:
* The exception is benign - the sensor gets the expected value of `null`
* The exception happens deep within the `JsonPath` library - it might well
be the right behaviour for it to fail if you ask for path `$` on a null object.
* Working around it in Brooklyn code would be added complexity for no real
benefit.
