Fix author-scan.sh on BSD systems.

BSD xargs does not have the -d option. Here we use tr to convert
newlines to NUL characters, then pass -0 to xargs (which BSD does
support).

I looked at passing -z to 'git ls-files', but I did not find a BSD
grep option to turn on NUL deliminted line processing.
