Composite Slots throw Undefined Exception during tests #807

Describe the bug
I have been working on a Lex V2 project that is using Composite Slots for a few Intents and we found that an undefined exception was interrupting the tests. We found that unfilled subslots were causing the exception when handling the response.

Regular slots get filtered out correctly as they are flat. For example:

"slots": {
  "optInConfirmation": null,
}  

Composite slots have nested subslots, so they are not filtered out:

"slots": {
  "generalInquiry": {
    "subSlots": {
      "optType": null,
      "optQuestion": null
    },
    "shape": "composite",
    "value": {
      "resolvedValues": []
    }
  }
}

To Reproduce
Create a composite slot for an intent and test

Expected behavior
The behavior should be the same as for simple slots

We have been able to correct the behavior by introducing Option chaining. I have opened a PR with our suggested fix. codeforequity-at/botium-connector-lex#22
