This fixes sequence<T>?; we previously used the NULLABLE property on a node that
never had it.

We still can't do sequence<T?>, but that type variant seems less useful to have
in an API. There's a FIXME in idl_types.py about restructuring type
representation to support sequence-of, array-of and nullable as independent
modifiers.
