Log: fix type for NULL constant (doc bug #67562)

Description:
------------
---
From manual page: http://www.php.net/reserved.constants
---
NULL (boolean)
See Null.
Just look at the source code of PHP5.6 which gets it right:
http://lxr.php.net/xref/PHP_5_6/Zend/zend_constants.c#118
NULL is of type null and its value is just like its name, namely null! It may be converted to a
boolean, explicitly (bool) NULL or automatically NULL < true
Please fix. Thank you.
