Log:
bootinfo_load.c: stop parsing CHRP boot script when NULL is reached

The Mac OS 9 CHRP boot script consists of a null-terminated Forth string
followed by a large binary payload. Make sure we correctly determine the size
of the bootscript at this point instead of trying to allocate memory for the
entire binary blob which fails due to insufficient memory.
