[PATCH 03/15] [GSOC] ref-filter: --format=%(raw) re-support --perl

From

Message-ID
<7d2314b43f21a470667971f1fdcb382f43bf51ed.1625155693.git.gitgitgadget@gmail.com>
In-Reply-To
<pull.989.git.1625155693.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)"` re-support `--perl`.
