[PATCH v5 01/12][resend] vsprintf: factorize "(null)" string

[Andrà Goddard Rosa]

Change "<NULL>" to "(null)", unifying 3 equal strings.
glibc also uses "(null)" for the same purpose.

It decreases code size by 7 bytes:
 text    data     bss     dec     hex filename
15765       0       8   15773    3d9d vsprintf.o (ex lib/lib.a-BEFORE)
15758       0       8   15766    3d96 vsprintf.o (ex lib/lib.a-AFTER)
