Bug #19688008 CREATE_ASYMMETRIC_PUB_KEY: CRASHES IN OPENSSL

              CODE

Problem: UDF doesn't handle the arguments properly when they
         are of string type due to a misplaced break.
         The length of arguments is also not set properly
         when the argument is NULL.

Solution: Fixed the code by putting the break at right place
          and setting the argument length to zero when the
          argument is NULL.
