[Bug runtime/4706] New: binary strings

[fche at redhat dot com]

We should consider adopting a binary-safe (length+buffer) representation
of strings.  This would allow copying of binary blobs to/from the kernel,
not just those that happen to exclude \0.

We'd need a family of functions to create/process/print them, and the
tapsets may need to be changed (no more strlcpy -- or perhaps our own
Special Improved replacement, ugh.).
