[issue6443] _winreg.QueryValueEx confused on double null terminated strings

[Andrew Ziem]

Andrew Ziem <ahz001 at gmail.com> added the comment:

Attached screenshot shows regedit handles \x00\x00 by showing all the
"invalid values" (each \x00 becomes a line break).  More importantly,
Windows apparently reads all the "invalid value" when processing
FileRenameOperations, so my Python program must be able to read "invalid
value" to append new instructions.
