The function does not return the same value as snprintf() normally does,
so readers may be mislead into thinking the code works differently than
it actually does. A different function name makes this easier to detect.

If the precision is indeed shorter than the string, don't strlen() to
find the end because that's not how the precision operator works.
I also added a unit test for curl_msnprintf to make sure this works and
that the fix doesn't a few other basic use cases. I found a POSIX
compliance problem that I marked TODO in the unit test, and I figure we
need to add more tests in the future.
