LANG-1050 Generic nullToEmpty method
A generic nullToEmpty method has been created. The idea was to use this as
a base for all of the wrapper class methods; however this would break the
contract they currently provide.

> Currently there are multiple Object based methods which could be replaced by
> a single generic method.
> - public static Long[] nullToEmpty(final Long[] array)
> - public static Integer[] nullToEmpty(final Integer[] array)
> - public static Short[] nullToEmpty(final Short[] array)
> - public static Character[] nullToEmpty(final Character[] array)
> - public static Byte[] nullToEmpty(final Byte[] array)
> - public static Double[] nullToEmpty(final Double[] array)
> - public static Float[] nullToEmpty(final Float[] array)
> - public static Boolean[] nullToEmpty(final Boolean[] array)
> Recommendation, replace all of these with a single method that would also
> allow a defensive programming style when not using wrapped primitives.
> - public static <T> T[] nullToEmpty(final T[] array)
