Make the TagMap Entry pathway null-tolerant (#11963)

Make the TagMap Entry pathway null-tolerant

create(Object)/create(CharSequence) may return null for a null or empty
value, and the Entry sinks -- getAndSet(Entry) / set(EntryReader) -- treat a
null Entry as a no-op, so a null/empty value flows through the Entry pathway
as "no tag" without any caller guarding. create(Object) now applies the
empty-CharSequence check by runtime type, so the null/empty => absent
convention holds regardless of the static type at the call site.

The strict (key,value) setters keep their contract -- their values are now
@nonnull -- so null tolerance is scoped to the Entry pathway. The annotations
make the split self-describing.

Fixes a latent NPE by construction: RemoteHostnameAdder sets
create(TRACER_HOST, hostname) guarding only null, not empty, so an empty
hostname previously NPE'd on set(null). Caller-side guard cleanup (incl. the
redundant #11958 guard) is left to a follow-up.

Mark tag keys @nonnull on the TagMap write/create surface

A tag has no valid null key, so put/set/getAndSet/create now take @nonnull
tag. This completes the null contract alongside the value/Entry side: keys
are strict (null = a bug), values/Entries on the Entry pathway are tolerant
(null = no tag). Scoped to the write/create surface; read/lookup keys
(getString, remove, getXxxOrDefault) are left for a possible follow-up.
