What does this PR do?

In the api/users.php the function signature requires string for name parameter even though its an optional one and displays a vague message over it.
I have modified the signature and added a null check and made the name as empty string if the parameter is given as null.

Test Plan

After updating the code, I have created a user with the null values using the api call using Thunder client VS code extension (similar to postman)

Walkthrough

The changes update the user creation logic by making the name parameter optional across the relevant controller functions and API endpoint callbacks. The createUser function now handles a null or missing name by defaulting it to an empty string, ensuring consistent behavior when the parameter is omitted.

Changes

File(s) Change Summary
app/controllers/api/users.php Made name parameter optional (?string $name) in createUser and related API route action callbacks. Added logic to set $name to an empty string if null or empty.

Poem

🐇
A name may be missing, but users appear,
With empty-string greetings, the logic is clear.
Optional fields, a gentle new way—
The code hops ahead, with bugs kept at bay.
Hooray for the patch, let new users play!

85-87: Improve the null check to be more specific.

Using empty($name) checks for multiple "empty" values (null, false, 0, '0', '', []), but for a nullable string parameter, you likely want to check specifically for null.

Consider using a more specific null check:

-        if (empty($name)) {
-            $name = '';
-        }
+        $name = $name ?? '';

Or if you want to be explicit:

-        if (empty($name)) {
-            $name = '';
-        }
+        if ($name === null) {
+            $name = '';
+        }

This prevents unexpected behavior if someone passes other "empty" values like 0 or false.
