Avoid attr-err when `._ipc_msg==None`

Seems this can happen in particular when we raise a `MessageTypeError`
on the sender side of a `Context`, since there isn't any msg relayed
from the other side (though i'm wondering if MTE should derive from RAE
then considering this case?).

Means `RemoteActorError.boxed_type = None` in such cases instead of
raising an attr-error for the `None.boxed_type_str`.
