Vitaly, thanks for the test cases. My comments below.

Agree with Rasmus.

And just to make a side note that useless use of min() since we have
strnlen() :-)

I prefer to put '\0' at the position after we expected have an actual
'\0'. In this case we always be NULL terminated. I did this for hexdump
test cases.
