** Replacement for a missing strlcpy.
**
** Written by Russ Allbery <rra@stanford.edu>
** This work is hereby placed in the public domain by its author.
**
** Provides the same functionality as the *BSD function strlcpy, originally
** developed by Todd Miller and Theo de Raadt. strlcpy works similarly to
** strncpy, except saner and simpler. The result is always nul-terminated
** even if the source string is longer than the destination string, and the
** total space required is returned. The destination string is not
** nul-filled like strncpy does, just nul-terminated.
