Subject of the issue

When trying to use AtomicTransactionComposer to prepare an application call with argument of type address or byte[32], it panics with error message panic: reflect: call of reflect.Value.IsNil on array Value when calling comp.AddMethodCall(mcp).

It seems like the same issue affects all fixed-size arrays, any argument of type someType[N] triggers this error
