We've also been changing "NULL" in comments and strings.  This avoids having an identifier in those that isn't actually
present in code.  Perhaps more importantly, it prepares for JDK-8343802.  In comments and strings we sometimes use
"null" and sometimes use "nullptr", depending on whether the context code-like or not.
