Description

IO#ungetc accepts nil and just does nothing:

p File.new(__FILE__).ungetc(nil)

But on a GzipReader it fails:

require 'zlib'
zip = "\x1F\x8B\b\x00,\xDC\xD1G\x00\x0334261MLJNI\x05\x00\x9D\x05\x00$\n\x00\x00\x00"
io = StringIO.new zip
gz = Zlib::GzipReader.new(io)
p gz.ungetc(nil)
# =>
repro.rb:8:in `ungetc': no implicit conversion of nil into String (TypeError)
    from repro.rb:8:in `<main>'

Should Zlib::GzipReader#ungetc accept nil?
Or should IO#ungetc also raise when given nil?
