ConvertEmptyStringsToNull

• Laravel Version: 5.4

Description:

I am facing an annoying issue. When I am using required_if and string validation, if required_if is false, it doesn't pass string validation, because of the null value. If I add nullable to the validation, it passes required_if, even if the condition is true.
I think we need to add attribute "except" to ConvertEmptyStringsToNull like with TrimStrings.

See #17663

I haven't seen a good solution there.
I overrode the ConvertEmptyStringsToNull middleware and it worked fine.

That was fixed in #18376
