Error: Call to a member function getKeyValue() on null and Deprecated function: strlen(): Passing null to parameter #1 ($string)

Created a merge request and also added this patch version to use it in the composer to avoid using the merge request diff directly.

Thanks for the review @matthew. I have update the merge request and adding a updated patch as well.

   This triggers two loads. It should be either something like:

   $key = $storage->load($key_id);
   $key_value = $key ? $key->getKeyValue() : NULL;
   

   Or if we can require PHP 8 the much easier to read:

   $key_value = $storage($key_id)?->getKeyValue();

   The interface says this should only be a string. What's causing it to be null? Do you have a deeper trace so we can maybe fix the code that's not following the interface?

This looks like a duplicate? 🐛 Deprecated Function: strlen(): Passing null to parameter #1 ($string) of type string is deprecated in Drupal\key\Plugin\KeyType\EncryptionKeyType->validateKeyValue() (line 124 of modules/contrib/key/src/Plugin/KeyType/EncryptionKeyType.php) Fixed

i noticed this patch is still not in the latest release which is June 2024 and wondering why not? is there a problem?

Yes, this is a partial duplicate of 🐛 Deprecated Function: strlen(): Passing null to parameter #1 ($string) of type string is deprecated in Drupal\key\Plugin\KeyType\EncryptionKeyType->validateKeyValue() (line 124 of modules/contrib/key/src/Plugin/KeyType/EncryptionKeyType.php) Fixed . Let's focus this issue on the Error: Call to a member function getKeyValue() on null part of it.
