fsck: detect and warn a commit with embedded NUL
Even though a Git commit object is designed to be capable of storing any binary data as its payload, in practice people use it to describe the changes in textual form, and tools like "git log" are designed to treat the payload as text. Detect and warn when we see any commit object with a NUL byte in it. Note that a NUL byte in the header part is already detected as a grave error. This change is purely about the message part.
