fix(img-lib): ignored null byte in input

lveyde · haraldh · commit 85eb96802cb8 · 2021-04-22T11:23:22.000+02:00
The system currently throws numerous nasty warning messages during
the boot, about ignored null bytes in input.

This patch adds a filter to the dd command, to filter these null
bytes out, and thus to prevent these warning messages.
