Fix: null values throwing exception when traversing over while getting #50

Previously getting any value, where an object in the path was null, would throw an exception, while it being undefined would not.

Example:

const obj = {
   foo: null,
   baz: undefined
}

jsonpointer.get(obj, "/foo/baz") /// <--- This would throw
jsonpointer.get(obj, "/baz/foo") /// <---- This would not

The fix is simply also checking equality with null and then returning null (comparable to the undefined case, where it already returned null)

Thanks for the fixes. I've introduced some better test assertions in #59 and rebased against it to get it in.
I also did a small fix to return undefined for .get('/nullValue/something')
IMO we can merge this once the other PR is merged.

Feel free to merge at will, I don't actually work with this library anymore, because the project is over where I used it, so you have full authority to merge and change at will :)
