Can you tell why you are convinced the null byte should be considered
as part of the string?
The null terminator is the reason one would use the strz type. If the
user doesn't want a null terminator, they should use the str type
instead. From the documentation [1]:
str len
String of bytes of length len.
strz &optional len
Zero-terminated string of bytes, can be of arbitrary length or
in a fixed-size field with length len.
