/* Read the symbolic link into the supplied buffer and add a terminating nul.

 * an ERROR and returns -1.  Otherwise, returns the number of bytes read,
 * including the terminating nul, ie, returns what readlink(2) returns plus
 * one.  If the 'len' argument is given as zero, then returns the number of
 * bytes that would be read, by calling lstat(2) instead of readlink(2), plus
 * one for the terminating nul.  Beware of the following race condition: a
 * symbolic link may be altered between calling the lstat(2) and readlink(2),
 * so the following apparently overflow-proof code may still fail from a buffer
 * overflow in the second call to read_symlink():
