[PATCH 03/27] [GSOC] ref-filter: --format=%(raw) support --perl

Message-ID
<452ea887e6123bc74b1a2f563ab0ea7c650867b9.1628842990.git.gitgitgadget@gmail.com>
In-Reply-To
<pull.1016.git.1628842990.gitgitgadget@gmail.com>
From: ZheNing Hu <adlternative@gmail.com>

Because the perl language can handle binary data correctly, add the function perl_quote_buf_with_len(), which can specify the length of the data and prevent the data from being truncated at '\0' to help `--format="%(raw)"` support `--perl`.
