When replacing the literal "double00" with "foobar" in your function,
the same error occurs for me:
test=# select doublezero();
INFO: foobar
CONTEXT: PL/Perl function "doublezero"
ERROR: invalid byte sequence for encoding "UTF8": 0x00 at line 6.
CONTEXT: fonction PL/Perl « doublezero »
Anyway it's not clear what you expect. PG doesn't support UTF-16,
and even if it did, it wouldn't accept such strings when the current
encoding is UTF-8.
If Active Directory wants UTF-16LE, you have to do that conversion, but
don't pass the result back to postgres in this format.
