## Description
Fixes #33420
This PR fixes a that occurs when using with nullable types during Shell
navigation.
## Root Cause
In `ShellContent.ApplyQueryAttributes`, the code used
`Convert.ChangeType(value, prop.PropertyType)` which fails when the
property type is nullable (e.g., `long?`, `int?`) because
`Convert.ChangeType` does not handle `Nullable<T>` types directly.
When a user navigates with a nullable parameter like:
```csharp
Dictionary<string, object> param = new() {
{ nameof(DetailsPage.ID), (long?)1 }
};
await Shell.Current.GoToAsync(nameof(DetailsPage), param);
```
And the destination page has:
```csharp
[QueryProperty(nameof(ID), nameof(ID))]
public partial class DetailsPage : ContentPage
{
public long? ID { get; set; }
}
```
The app would crash with `InvalidCastException`.
## Solution
Use `Nullable.GetUnderlyingType()` to extract the underlying type before
conversion:
1. Check if the property type is nullable using
`Nullable.GetUnderlyingType()`
2. If nullable, extract the underlying type (e.g., `long` from `long?`)
3. Convert the value to the underlying type
4. Assign (automatic wrapping in nullable occurs)
5. Handle null values explicitly
## Changes
**Fix:**
- `src/Controls/src/Core/Shell/ShellContent.cs` - Added nullable type
handling in `ApplyQueryAttributes`
**Tests:**
- Added UI test `Issue33420` that reproduces the issue and verifies the
fix
- Test navigates with a nullable `long?` parameter and verifies
navigation succeeds
## Testing
✅ Tests fail without the fix (reproduces the crash)
✅ Tests pass with the fix (navigation works)
✅ Verified on iOS simulator
## Platforms Affected
All platforms (iOS, Android, Windows, MacCatalyst) - Shell navigation
code is shared.
