chore: gradually reduce null-check errors (#3094)
## About the changes

In order to move us towards enabling `strictNullChecks` we'd want to
have a way of gradually enabling this without having to fix all errors
at once, this will force us to start reducing the number of null check
issues.

This new workflow:
1. [Checks out the current branch and main into 2 different
folders](https://github.com/Unleash/unleash/pull/3094/files#diff-068f2ace1d1d2e773fb5e4240c83ccab251556fd5524fe13847122878e40da3bR15-R23)
2. Uses the **same** script `gradual-strict-null-checks.sh` (from the
current branch) [against each folder in
parallel](https://github.com/Unleash/unleash/pull/3094/files#diff-068f2ace1d1d2e773fb5e4240c83ccab251556fd5524fe13847122878e40da3bR34-R38)
to count the number of errors if `strictNullChecks` was enabled
3. If the number of potential errors in the current branch is higher
than the number of potential errors in main [it
fails](https://github.com/Unleash/unleash/pull/3094/files#diff-068f2ace1d1d2e773fb5e4240c83ccab251556fd5524fe13847122878e40da3bR41-R46)

As an example, a [new issue was introduced in this
PR](753f57223c)
(and then
[reverted](e4deb62965)),
so we can test the build failure:

## Discussion points
This could be a non-mandatory check, just advising, or even adding a
comment in the PR. It might be good to start with a non-strict check,
but at the same time we can decide to make it non-strict if a problem
appears

In some situations, an additional null check error might require us to
fix a bunch of them, increasing the time to deliver. In these cases we
can suppress an individual line with `// @ts-ignore: Object is possibly
'null'.` although might defeat the purpose of this workflow
