Resolves asyncapi#1178 by explicitly stating that null values in traits or target objects MUST be preserved as-is and MUST NOT be interpreted as deletion directives, regardless of JSON Merge Patch semantics. Added null value examples to the Traits Merge Mechanism section. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
