[ Upstream commit 86b20af11e84c26ae3fde4dcc4f490948e3f8035 ]

There is a general misunderstanding amongst engineers that {v}snprintf()
returns the length of the data *actually* encoded into the destination
array.  However, as per the C99 standard {v}snprintf() really returns
the length of the data that *would have been* written if there were
enough space for it.  This misunderstanding has led to buffer-overruns
in the past.  It's generally considered safer to use the {v}scnprintf()
variants in their place (or even sprintf() in simple cases).  So let's
do that.

Whilst we're at it, let's define some magic numbers to increase
readability and ease of maintenance.
