[PATCH 4/6] git_config_parse_key(): return baselen as size_t

[Jeff King <peff@xxxxxxxx>]

As with the recent change to parse_config_key(), the best type to return
a string length is a size_t, as it won't cause integer truncation for a
gigantic key. And as with that change, this is mostly a clarity /
hygiene issue for now, as our config parser would choke on such a large
key anyway.

There are a few ripple effects within the config code, as callers switch
to using size_t. I also adjusted a few related variables that iterate
over strings. The most unexpected change is that a call to strbuf_addf()
had to switch to strbuf_add(). We can't use a size_t with "%.*s",
because printf precisions must have type "int" (we could cast, of
course, but that would miss the point of using size_t in the first
place).
