sysctl: make sure to terminate strings with a NUL

This is a slightly more complete fix for the previous minimal sysctl
string fix.  It always terminates the returned string with a NUL, even
if the full result wouldn't fit in the user-supplied buffer.

The returned length is the full untruncated length, so that you can
tell when truncation has occurred.
