- It is never too late to do the right thing.
- The vast majority of usages of `Jenkins.getInstance()` in core currently assume that its return value is non-null
- This commit changes those that are written to correctly check for non-null values will call `Jenkins.getInstanceOrNull()`
- We deprecate the `Jenkins.getActiveInstance()` madness
- I checked with @kohsuke who said not to bother with a PR and just commit this strongly opinionated change direct to master as a PR will just degrade into a bikeshedding.
