In nul_to_q and q_to_nul implementations (t/test-lib-functions.sh)
we seem to avoid using "tr", even though q_to_cr and others do use
it.  I wonder if we had some portability issues with passing NUL
through tr or something?

So use something like

	perl -pe 'y/\012/\000/' <<\-EOF
        ...
        EOF

instead, perhaps?

I actually think it would make more sense to add

    lf_to_nul () {
            perl -pe 'y/\012/\000/'
    }

to t/test-lib-functions.sh somewhere near q_to_nul if we were to go
this route.

Turns out this function already exists in test-lib-functions.sh
