Guard against unmounted components when accessing public instances on…

… Fabric (#27687)

## Summary

This fixes an error in `getPublicInstanceFromInstanceHandle` where we
throw an error when trying to access the public instance from the fiber
of an unmounted component. This shouldn't throw but return `null`
instead.

## How did you test this change?

Updated unit tests.
