Support missing_policy="mask" on inverse transform #674

Description

@PGijsbers

Transferring TODOs to the issue tracker (#172).

def inverse_transform(
self, vec: str | np.ndarray, **params: Any
) -> str | np.ndarray:
"""
:param vec: must a single value or line vector (array)
:param params:
:return:
"""
if not self.delegate:
return vec
# TODO: handle mask
vec = np.asarray(vec).astype(self.encoded_type, copy=False)
return self.delegate.inverse_transform(vec, **params)

In the encoders mask mode, while encoding missing values are temporarily masked as non-missing ones, and then replaced with missing values. During the reverse decoding, as I understand it, we would need to substitute back in those markers, then decode, and then set them to np.nan or None again. (however, that also seems fairly straight forward so I am not 100% why this is then a TODO).
