Technically, for a POSIX-conforming shell, `\0` is correct, and the
backslash does not need to be escaped. Of course, it doesn't hurt to
write `\\0` since it resolves to the same thing, but it isn't
necessary. See POSIX section "2.2.3 Double-Quotes":
https://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/utilities/V3_chap02.html#tag_18_02_03

Since POSIX says that `\0` is correct and since we haven't encountered
any shells which handle this incorrectly, there seems little reason to
change it.
