Emmanuel Odeke 0a2a64d85d encoding/gob: error out instead of panicking on nil dereference
Do not panic when we encounter nil interface values which are
invalid values for gob. Previously this wasn't caught yet
we were calling reflect.*.Type() on reflect.Invalid values
thereby causing panic:
  `panic: reflect: call of reflect.Value.Type on zero Value.`
which is a panic not enforced by encoding/gob itself.
We can catch this and send back an error to the caller.

Fixes #16204

Our canonical Git repository is located at https://go.googlesource.com/go. There is a mirror of the repository at https://github.com/golang/go.

Go is the work of hundreds of contributors. We appreciate your help!

Binary Distribution Notes

If you have just untarred a binary Go distribution, you need to set the environment variable $GOROOT to the full path of the go directory (the one containing this file). You can omit the variable if you unpack it into /usr/local/go, or if you rebuild from sources by running all.bash (see doc/install-source.html). You should also add the Go binary directory $GOROOT/bin to your shell's path.

For example, if you extracted the tar file into $HOME/go, you might put the following in your .profile:

export GOROOT=$HOME/go
export PATH=$PATH:$GOROOT/bin

See https://golang.org/doc/install or doc/install.html for more details.
