Fixes #1169

Calling HttpResponses.text(null) will create a response with text containing the string literal "null".

Instead, pass the empty string "" as the response text when the exception text is null.

On the client side, check if the response text is valid (not null and not empty) before using it. Otherwise, return an empty array for the exception text.

Testing done

Local testing along with the added unit tests.
