[PATCH] xdiff-interface.c (buffer_is_binary): Remove buffer size limitation

From: Dmitry V. Levin <hidden>
Date: 2016-06-15 22:43:55
Subsystem: the rest · Maintainer: Linus Torvalds

When checking buffer for NUL byte, do not limit size of buffer we check.
Otherwise we break git-rebase: git-format-patch may generate output which
git-mailinfo cannot handle properly.
