…during the initialization of DelegatingBlockReader with debug log level enabled

What changes are proposed in this pull request?

This PR updates the toString method in DelegatingBlockReader to prevent a NullPointerException when logging at debug level before mBlockReader is initialized. It adds a null check for mBlockReader and returns a descriptive message if it is null.

Why are the changes needed?

The changes are necessary to fix a bug that leads to a NullPointerException during the debug-level logging of the DelegatingBlockReader initialization process.

1. Prevents NPE in Debug Logging: By adding a null check before accessing mBlockReader.toString(), this PR prevents the NPE that previously occurred during debug logging when mBlockReader was not fully initialized.
2. Enhances Logging Clarity: The PR ensures that logging during the initialization phase of DelegatingBlockReader provides clear and accurate information, which is crucial for effective debugging and monitoring.

Does this PR introduce any user facing changes?

2. No addition or removal of property keys: There are no changes to the configuration properties as part of this PR.
