Fan Hong updated FLINK-30730:
-----------------------------
    Description: 
When training data contains null values, StringIndexer throws a exception. The 
reason is this method [1]: null values are neither String type nor Number type.

In StringIndexerModel, null values are also not handled correctly when 
performing transformation.
