NULL is the name of the pointer. The name of the ASCII control char is NUL,
AFAIK.

Ok, finally applied.

It is still widely linked to the options default syntax and parser. It does
not matter much I think.

I believe the typical use case would be something like:

while (*opts) {
    av_opt_get_key_value(&opts, ...);
}

so the empty string is already handled. For other use cases, testing *opts
before hand is quite easy. And the guarantee that rval is never NULL when
the function succeeds is very useful.
