Using 'git rerere forget .' after a merge that involved binary files
runs into an infinite loop if the binary file contains a zero byte.
Replace a strchrnul by memchr because the former does not make progress
as soon as the NUL is encountered.

 The new test case runs into the infinite loop if you back out
 the code change.

 There's another bug where an uninitialized pointer is accessed
 in the second for-loop in handle_cache(), presumably for a file
 with ADD-ADD conflicts. Will look into that one later this week.
