[PATCH v3 06/33] lib/string_helpers: string_get_size() now returns characters wrote

[Kent Overstreet]

printbuf now needs to know the number of characters that would have been
written if the buffer was too small, like snprintf(); this changes
string_get_size() to return the the return value of snprintf().
