Pickle deserialization null byte discrepancy

Bug report

Bug description:

In C, the null byte indicates the end of a char[]. In INT and LONG opcodes for pickle, everything up to a newline is read from the bytestream and ran through a string to integer conversion function. However, a bytestream like b'L1\x00anything\n.' or b'I1\x00anything\n.' does not fail in _pickle.c (like it does in pickle.py and pickletools.py) due to the null byte.

On line 5208 (for INT) and line 5362 (for LONG), _Unpickler_Readline(state, self, &s) reads everything (including a null byte) into the s variable, which is char *. However, strtol or PyLong_FromString (1, 2) stop when the first null byte is encountered, meaning everything including and after the null byte is ignored, returning 1 (in the above example).

It's a small inconsistency as an edge case, but I'm not sure how to fix it, or whether having it stopped at a null byte is desired behavior or not.

Edit - this also applies to FLOAT.

Beginne damit, die Beispiele mit Nullbytes für INT und LONG zusammen mit dem FLOAT-Fall zu reproduzieren, und vergleiche _pickle.c mit pickle.py und pickletools.py. Untersuche Modules/_pickle.c in der Nähe der Zeilen 5208, 5216, 5223, 5362 und 5374; done erfordert, dass das beabsichtigte Verhalten festgestellt ist und die Implementierungen diese Eingaben konsistent verarbeiten.
