t5562: do not depend on /dev/zero

It was reported [1] that NonStop platform does not have /dev/zero. The test uses /dev/zero as a dummy input. Passing case (http-backed failed because of too big input size) should not be reading anything from it. If http-backend would erroneously try to read any data returning EOF probably would be even safer than providing some meaningless data. Replace /dev/zero with /dev/null to avoid issues with platforms which do not have /dev/zero. [1] https://public-inbox.org/git/[email protected]/ Reported-by: Randall S.
