[issue12546] str.format cannot fill with \x00 char

[Davide Rizzo]

Davide Rizzo <sorcio at gmail.com> added the comment:

This patch removes the special meaning for \x00 and defines the default padding character (' ') in parse_internal_render_format_spec. Test included. Maybe the default padding character should be defined elsewhere?
