ValueRange:getValues() returns null for empty sheet.

Environment details

• OS: Linux
• PHP version: 8.2
• Package name and version:

Steps to reproduce

1. Create an empty spreadsheet
2. Try to fetch data from it.
3. In result ValueRange:getValues() will return null what conflicts with the return type hint from the method.

Can we update the return type to null or array, please? :)

So, I discussed this issue internally, and we can't use Union types because we want to support PHP 7.4.
Regarding adding multiple types in the docbloc: These files are auto generated and it might be a while before we add provisions to put multiple return types(or nullable in this case) in the generator.

So, this issue might take a while to resolve.

I am sorry I don't come bearing better news, but I just wanted to update you what we discussed.
