Hello

After upgrading pkg to 1.16 all my monitoring for vulnerable packages started
making noise.

Before pkg 1.16 "pkg audit -q" would not output anything if no packages were
vulnerable, and would output one line per vulnerable package otherwise. I use
this in a simple script to keep an eye on things.

After pkg 1.16 it outputs the string "(null)" to stdout when no vulnerable
packages are installed, meaning my monitoring now says that I have 1 vulnerable
package everywhere :)
