Fix `to_numpy` when None values in the sequence
State: closed

Closes #5927 
I've realized that the error was overlooked during testing due to the presence of only one None value in the sequence.
Unfortunately, it was the only case where the function works as expected. When the sequence contained more than one None value, the function failed. Consequently, I've updated the tests to include sequences with multiple None values.

I just added the same test with dynamic shape

Awesome ! I'm merging now if you don't mind :)
