[PackMan] NullReferenceException error is thrown if a sample in package.json does not exist
How to reproduce:
1. Open user's attached "PacManBugs.zip" project
2. Go to Window -> Package Manager
3. Expand "elZach" in the Package Manager
4. Select the "elZach LevelEditor" package
5. Observe the Console log
Expected result: No errors are thrown when selecting a package, which doesn't have "displayName" or "path" fields in the samples attribute in the package.json file
Actual result: "NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object" error is thrown in the Console log when a "displayName" field is not in the samples attribute in the package.json file
