Subject: 26.3; `comment-padright' fails when `comment-padding' is an integer
Date: Fri, 13 Mar 2020 22:31:04 +0100 (CET)

Docstring of `comment-padding' variable says: Can also be an integer which will be automatically turned into a string of the corresponding number of spaces. 

I'm using Emacs 26, but by inspection I don't expect a different result in master.

% emacs -Q --batch --eval '(let ((comment-padding 0)) (comment-padright "-- " 1))'
Wrong type argument: sequencep, 0

This should now be fixed in Emacs 28.
