REST-API NullPointerException thrown for a request for a specific community if 
there are no community admistrators
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: DS-928
                 URL: https://jira.duraspace.org/browse/DS-928
             Project: DSpace
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: REST API (experimental)
            Reporter: Robin Taylor


On my local machine a request for http://localhost:8080/rest/communities/1.xml 
throws a NullPointerException in CommunityEntity. The problem is that 
res.getAdministrators() can legitimately return a null if there are no 
administrators for that Community. Instantiating GroupEntity with a null causes 
the Exception.

this.administrators = includeFull ? new GroupEntity(res.getAdministrators(), 
level, uparams) : new GroupEntityId(res.getAdministrators());

We need to change the code to include a check - res.getAdministrators() != null
