[Bug gdb/11049] New: set print null-stop on spoils print for strings

["pemekcz at gmail dot com" <sourceware-bugzilla at sourceware dot org>]

start gdb with any C program using char *string="qwerty";

(gdb) print string
$1 = "qwerty" 
invoke 
(gdb) set print null-stop on
and then 
(gdb) print string
$2 = ""
and revert setting:
(gdb) set print null-stop off
(gdb) print string
$3 = "qwerty"

The same for strings or arrays of char inside of structures.
