Ruby - WebDialog.set_html() and string with null character

[dolzenko]

When the string containing null character is passed to WebDialog.set_html() the page is loaded up to this characted.

Here is the test case:

NASTY_STRING = "asd\000dsa"

UI.menu("Plugins").add_item("test set_html") do
	dlg = UI;;WebDialog.new("test set_html", true);
	dlg.set_html(NASTY_STRING)
	dlg.show() # only "asd" is displayed
end

UI.menu("Plugins").add_item("test set_file") do
	dlg = UI;;WebDialog.new("test set_file", true);
	temp_file = ENV['TEMP'] + "\\test_set_file.html"
	File.open(temp_file, "wb") do |file|
		file.write(NASTY_STRING)
	end	
	dlg.set_file(temp_file) # only "asddsa" is displayed
	dlg.show()
end

I understand this is pretty nasty edge case, but still can produce mind boggling results/surprises.

NULL characters aren't allowed in HTML. And NULL characters are in C (I think) used to terminate a string.
