Change in dumping of NULL strings

When dumping a string, adding 2 to its size may overflow a size_t for
external strings, which may not have a header. (Adding 1 is Ok, because
all strings end with a '\0' not included in their size.) The new method
for saving NULL strings code them as a repeated string, using the
reserved index 0.
