The regex is not correct for matching a trailing null.

> r = /\0.*$/
/\0.*$/
> s = '\0more'
'\x00more'
> !!s.match(r)
true

Even if it were: are there no legit cases where the last byte would not be null?

In B&G waypoints the current function includes the \u0000 at the end of the route/waypoint name.
The regex does remove it and works when replaying the pgn.

I noticed trim() functions in other string functions, so this isn't that different.

Probably using an approach like 'ASCII text' is better using a variety of stopbytes, but I didn't want to rewrite the whole function as I don't know how to test many cases.
