Description
On Cisco IOS XR, configuring Bundle-Interfaces, the yang empty data type is implemented incorrectly.
Instead of returning "[null]" as defined in the RFC, the value "[\n null \n]" is returned.
So far this issue has been observed for Bundle-Interfaces only.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the Cisco IOS-XR Bundle-Interfaces case and compare its YANG empty value with RFC 7951 section 6.9. Trace the existing Bundle-Interfaces handling to find where the returned formatting is produced. Done means the value is returned as "[null]" rather than "[\n null \n]".
