NPE in xsbt.DelegatingReporter.getActions

[unkarjedy]

steps

1. Create a dummy project with sbt 1.9.0 - 1.9.4
2. Add -X scalacOption.
   From https://docs.scala-lang.org/overviews/compiler-options/index.html:

-X Print a synopsis of advanced options.

ThisBuild / scalaVersion := "2.13.11"

lazy val root = (project in file("."))
  .settings(
    name := "untitled5",
    scalacOptions ++= Seq("-X")
  )

3. Add dummy scala file to src

class Example {
}

5. run sbt compile

problem

expectation

No exception, like in sbt 1.8.3
It's a regression since 1.9.0

I will prepare a PR with the fix soon
