1178	Recent change to Slice::checkRPL broke decoder	karlsharman		"Recent change to Slice::checkRPL has broken the decoder.

JVET_S0160_ASPECT1_ASPECT9 adds a check on m_pcPic->cs->vps->getIndependentLayerFlag(layerIdx), but vps may not exist.

Possible solution: check vps is not a nullptr (as is done 2 lines above the change), before doing the check.

Example test case showing problem:
./bin/EncoderAppStatic -c cfg/encoder_randomaccess_vtm.cfg -c cfg/per-sequence/BasketballPass.cfg -f 1
./bin/DecoderAppStatic -b str.bin
   <segmentation fault>
