React safeRender higher-order component

Common errors

attempting to access properties on null or undefined values causes internal server errors, breaks entire site

   • consideration: no errors are thrown, need to rely on humans in some cases to notice something wrong with or missing on the front-end

attempting to access properties on `null` or `undefined` values causes internal server errors, breaks entire site

## Prior solutions
1. defensive programming using idioms like `object && object.value1 && object.value1.value2` and lodash's `prop(object, 'value1.value2')`
