neat.evolve() crashes when fitness set to null

Running my code I now have this error ReferenceError: Parameter "dataset" is required; parameter "dataset" is missing.

Code: neat.evolve(null, filter, adjust);

It seems that evolve no longer allows null datasets.

I added a null check for fitness. It’s now working poorly. Again it will never increase the generation number. It never returns from this method: await self.evaluate(evolve_dataset);

Think I just found the culprit, turns out the default fitness is just a regular synchronous function so we shouldn’t be using await for it

The tests we had weren’t checking the default self.fitness so I’m going to make sure that we explicitly test for it and also for the new Neat({ fitness: null }) cases

Awesome catch @dan-ryan 🎆
