ceph: don't NULL terminate virtual xattrs
The convention with xattrs is to not store the termination with string data, given that it returns the length. This is how setfattr/getfattr operate. Most of ceph's virtual xattr routines use snprintf to plop the string directly into the destination buffer, but snprintf always NULL terminates the string. This means that if we send the kernel a buffer that is the exact length needed to hold the string, it'll end up truncated. Add a ceph_fmt_xattr helper function to format the string into an on-stack buffer that should always be large enough to hold the whole thing and then memcpy the result into the destination buffer. If it does turn out that the formatted string won't fit in the on-stack buffer, then return -E2BIG and do a WARN_ONCE(). Change over most of the virtual xattr routines to use the new helper. A couple of the xattrs are sourced from strings however, and it's difficult to know how long they'll be. Just have those memcpy the result in place after verifying the length.
