Summary

When you call ctx.respond (sending messages, not editing them) and other similar methods, you currently have to put them in an if block to decide whether to include embeds and/or views. With this PR, they'll be able to correctly handle a None, allowing usage of a variable or ternary expression. For instance,

if msg != NO_REMINDERS_MESSAGE:
    view =MyView()
    await ctx.respond(msg, view=view, ephemeral=True)
else:
    await ctx.respond(msg, ephemeral=True)

can now be simplified to:

view = None if msg == NO_REMINDERS_MESSAGE else MyView()
await ctx.respond(msg, view=view, ephemeral=True)

You could pass utils.MISSING but I guess this is also fine.
