llvm dev - May 2021 - NUL in TableGen files

There are various bits of code scattered throughout the TableGen lexer 
to deal with NUL characters that are not at the end of the source 
string. I'd like to clean that up by simply disallowing NULs in .td 
files. Can anyone think of a legitimate reason to use a NUL in a 
TableGen file?

Cleaning up NUL handling in TableGen lexer sounds good.
