Florian Weimer cea56af185 support: Change xgetline to return 0 on EOF
The advantage is that the buffer will always contain the number
of characters as returned from the function, which allows one to use
a sequence like

  /* No more audit module output.  */
  line_length = xgetline (&buffer, &buffer_length, fp);
  TEST_COMPARE_BLOB ("", 0, buffer, line_length);

to check for an expected EOF, while also reporting any unexpected
extra data encountered.
