Summary Fix empty TransferString being deserialized as null string

Sending an empty String instance over IPC via TransferString results in a null String instance on the receiver side. This is unexpected and can cause downstream issues. For instance, if the receiver then puts the unexpectedly null String in to a hash map, it will crash.
