[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v2] eal: support strlcat function

[Bruce Richardson]

Add the strlcat function to DPDK to exist alongside the strlcpy one.
While strncat is generally safe for use for concatenation, the API for the
strlcat function is perhaps a little nicer to use, and supports truncation
detection.

See commit: 5364de644a4b ("eal: support strlcpy function") for more
details on the function selection logic, since we only should be using the
DPDK-provided version when no system-provided version is present.
