TYPO3 Core

The asset collector throws an type error if the image file is not available. (TYPO3 11.5.24)
E.g. an typoscript IMAGE object rendered in fluid template with <f:cObject typoscriptObjectPath=" viewhelper, but the image file is not available.
In TYPO3 10.4 there is no type error if the image file is missing.
