Updated terminology in docs, comments and phrases to refer to C strings as "null-terminated". Done to unify with how most other C oriented docs refer of them and what users in general seem to prefer (based on a single highly unscientific poll on twitter). Reported-by: coinhubs on github Fixes #5598 Closes #5608
