Depends on the type. Basic types can't be null. Pointers and
classes can always be `null`, though you could wrap them in a
custom library type that doesn't allow them to be `null`. Dynamic
arrays and associative arrays can be null, but it's equivalent to
them being empty, so you can still use them like normal. You can
pass a struct as a `ref` parameter, which passes it by reference
but it's still typed as a plain struct, so it can't be `null`.
