Fixed O(n^2) HTTP body accumulation in `--listen` mode that could block the single-threaded server.

Full Release Notes

- Bug fixes
    - Skip `$FZF_CURRENT_ITEM` export when the item contains a NUL byte; `exec(2)` rejects the env, breaking preview and other child commands (#4806)
    - Fixed O(n^2) HTTP body accumulation in `--listen`; a single ~390 KB request could block the single-threaded server for ~8 s (Michal Majchrowicz, Marcin Wyczechowski, AFINE Team)
