Florian Weimer 454a20c875 Implement strlcpy and strlcat [BZ #178]
These functions are about to be added to POSIX, under Austin Group
issue 986.

The fortified strlcat implementation does not raise SIGABRT if the
destination buffer does not contain a null terminator, it just
inherits the non-failing regular strlcat behavior.
