Add a null UI method

There are cases when, if you pass a NULL UI_METHOD, the called
function will use an internal default.  This is well and good, but
there may be cases when this is undesirable and one would rather send
in a UI that does absolutely nothing (sort of a /dev/null).  UI_null()
is the UI_METHOD for this purpose.
