Description

Pandas version checks

• I have checked that this issue has not already been reported.
• I have confirmed this bug exists on the latest version of pandas.
• I have confirmed this bug exists on the main branch of pandas.

Reproducible Example

import pandas as pd s = pd.Series(['a', 'b']) s 0 a 1 b dtype: object s['a'] = None s 0 a 1 b a NaN dtype: object

Issue Description

In 1.5.0 there is a behaviour change, if you set a value on a Serie to None it is replaced with NaN.

Same thing with s.loc['dd'] = None

Expected Behavior

It should stay None
