…creation

This patch addresses static analyzer concerns where `TSI` could be dereferenced 
after being assigned a null value from `SubstType` in 
`ConvertConstructorToDeductionGuideTransform()`.

The fixes now check null value of `TSI` after the call to `SubstType` and 
return `nullptr` to prevent potential null pointer dereferences when calling 
getTypeLoc() or getType() and ensure safe execution.
