Looking at the code, it seems that a normalizer might be called with a `null` value for `$data`, and thus it's only sensible that it be allowed to return `null` too:
7064ff35f2/src/Symfony/Component/Serializer/Serializer.php (L141-L148)
Updating the phpdoc to match.

Bit of a casualty of commit tennis this:
A change to add `null` here as an option for how `UrlGeneratorInterface::generate()` (rather than the concrete `UrlGenerator`) was merged in https://github.com/symfony/symfony/pull/28321, but then [reverted](90494c20cc) for the reason [that this could be seen as a BC break](https://github.com/symfony/symfony/pull/28321#issuecomment-418540080), as the `null` return had not previously been documented (and is still not as part of the interface method docs).
However, in a subsequent change (https://github.com/symfony/symfony/pull/33252) with a wider scope, this doc change was added _back_ in order to reflect the underlying implementation as a result of a PHPStorm plugin complaining. There's no indication though of what a `null` return here though would mean, and for the same reason as the first revert (that this should be seen as a BC break), I'd like to submit this to be reverted for the 3.4 branch. (In 4.4 the `null` has already been removed.)
Having the interface indicating that this method can return `null` necessitates introducing a lot of actually redundant null checks in code that is covered by static analysis tools such as PHPStan.

This PR simplifies the Workflow component's mock implementation of the event dispatcher by implementing the much simpler contracts interface instead of the full-blown component interface.

[Workflow] Fix error when we use ValueObject for the marking property

Fix Illegal offset type in `MethodMarkingStore` class when we use Value Object for
the marking property.
Now, we can avoid to use only a string an we can have a Subject class with a Value Object like this :
```php
final class State
{
public const DRAFT = 'draft';
public const REVIEWED = 'reviewed';
public const REJECTED = 'rejected';
public const PUBLISHED = 'published';
/** @var string */
private $state;
public function __construct(string $state)
{
// some validation
$this->state = $state;
}
public function __toString()
{
return $this->state;
}
public static function Draft()
{
return new self(self::DRAFT);
}
...
}
final class Subject
{
private $marking;
public function __construct(State $marking = null)
{
$this->marking = $marking;
}
public function getMarking()
{
return $this->marking;
}
public function setMarking($marking)
{
$this->marking = $marking instanceof State ? $marking : new State($marking);
}
```
