Disallow NULs in filename-encoded strings
Previously we accepted trailing NULs, which was backwards compatible
as such usage never resulted in misbehavior in the first place. The
downside is that it prevented erts_native_filename_need from
returning an accurate number of *actual characters*, needlessly
complicating encoding-agnostic code like erts_osenv.
