This is a typo, as strings are terminated with a NUL character, which is a distinct concept from "NULL" or "null", which we typically reserve for the void pointer to address 0. Correct the documentation accordingly.

This is the only chunk not guaranteed to be a multiple of four bytes in length, so should be the last chunk for alignment reasons.
