0aac6402eb Change the randomly generated benchmark input
The xz backdoor relied on obfuscated test files that contained malicious
code instead of a real test. Since then, test and benchmark input that
cannot be explained should be considered suspicious.

Out of laziness, the input for the xl test (05) was generated through
the `openssl rand -hex` command, which outputs random data as an
hexadecimal string. Although I generated it myself and know there is
nothing hidden in there, I cannot prove it to someone else. Therefore, I
chose to stop using random data for this test and changed it to a
readable "lorem ipsum" string of the same size, like the other tests.
