Segfault in `CompositeTensorVariantToComponents`
Impact
An input encoded that is not a valid CompositeTensorVariant tensor will trigger a segfault in [tf.raw_ops.CompositeTensorVariantToComponents](https://github.com/tensorflow/tensorflow/blob/master/tensorflow/python/lib/core/py_func.cc).
```python
import tensorflow as tf
encode = tf.raw_ops.EmptyTensorList(element_dtype=tf.int32, element_shape=[10, 15], max_num_elements=2)
meta= ""
component=[tf.int32]
print(tf.raw_ops.CompositeTensorVariantToComponents(encoded=encode,metadata=meta,Tcomponents=component))
`
Patches
We have patched the issue in GitHub commits [bf594d08d377dc6a3354d9fdb494b32d45f91971](https://github.com/tensorflow/tensorflow/commit/bf594d08d377dc6a3354d9fdb494b32d45f91971) and [660ce5a89eb6766834bdc303d2ab3902aef99d3d](https://github.com/tensorflow/tensorflow/commit/660ce5a89eb6766834bdc303d2ab3902aef99d3d).
The fix will be included in TensorFlow 2.11. We will also cherrypick this commit on TensorFlow 2.10.1, 2.9.3, and TensorFlow 2.8.4, as these are also affected and still in supported range.
