test(ognl): re-enable testCustomOgnlMapBlocked for OGNL 3.4.8

- Re-enable testCustomOgnlMapBlocked test that was temporarily disabled
- Update assertions to expect null instead of exception (OGNL 3.4.8 behavior)
- Add testDisallowCustomOgnlMapFlagExplicitlyEnabled to verify flag behavior

Custom map blocking now returns null instead of throwing OgnlException,
which is still secure behavior - the custom map instantiation is prevented.
