With this change the code generation for method and property references is modified to include branching logic in the case of null safe dereferencing (?.). This is complicated by the possible usage of primitives on the left hand side of the dereference. To cope with this case primitives are promoted to boxed types when this situation occurs enabling null to be passed as a possible result. Issue: SPR-16489
