Run "make update-copyright", but then also run this,
  perl -pi -e 's/2\d\d\d-//' tests/sample-test
to make that one script use the single most recent year number.

This allows efficient processing of multiple files,
while also increasing compatibility with BSD's readlink(1).
We also add the -z, --zero option to delimit output items
with the NUL character which disambiguates output in the
presence of '\n' characters.

* src/readlink.c (usage): Add the --zero description,
and also adjust the description of --no-newline accordingly.
(main): Handle the -z option and iterate over multiple arguments.
Also as in commit v8.15-24-g9d46b25 we use fputs() and putchar()
rather than printf() for performance reasons.
* doc/coreutils.texi (readlink invocation): Document the
new --zero option, adjust the --no-newline description, and
tweak the general info to indicate multiple files are supported.
* tests/readlink/multi.sh: A new test for the new functionality.
* tests/local.mk: Reference the new test.
* man/readlink.x: Adjust the summary and also reference realpath.
* NEWS: Mention the improvement.
* THANKS.in: Suggested by Aaron Davies.
