PrefabUtility.SaveAsPrefabAsset() returns null when creating new prefab on AssetPostprocessor.OnPostProcessAllAssets()
Reproduction steps:
1. Open the attached project inside of "PrefabUtilitySaveAsAssetIssue.zip"
2. Delete "untitled_prefabroot" Prefab Asset if it exists (Might appear due to reimport)
3. Right-click on "untitled" Asset and click on "Reimport"
Expected result: No ArgumentNullExceptions are thrown inside the Console log
Actual result: ArgumentNullException is thrown inside the Console log
Reproduces on: 2018.3.12f1, 2019.1.0f1, 2019.2.0a11
Note:
- PrefabUtility.SaveAsPrefabAsset() was introduced as of 2018.3.0a6
- PrefabUtility.SaveAsPrefabAsset() overload with success boolean returns "true" even when method returns null
