Don't create std::string from nullptr
...which violates the ctor's preconditions, so is UB. Also, the "XML Help
Document Type Definition" appendix of
<http://documentation.openoffice.org/online_help/OOo2HelpAuthoring.pdf> states
that "branch" and "id" attributes are #REQUIRED for the "bookmark" element.
(There's probably further cases in the surrounding code where a std::string is
created from a potentially null argument, which would benefit from similar
fixes.)
