seq_buf: Add seq_buf_strlen()

Several strlcat() call sites being converted to seq_buf need behavior
seq_buf doesn't currently provide. The return from seq_buf_used() is
not the length of the string in a seq_buf. Once the buffer is full or
has overflowed it returns the buffer size, which counts the byte that
seq_buf_str() replaces with the NUL, so a caller that needs the string
and its length has to call seq_buf_str() and then walk the string with
strlen().

Move the termination out of seq_buf_str() into a helper that returns
where it put the NUL, and add seq_buf_strlen(), which terminates the
buffer in the same way and returns that offset.

As discussed in review, don't add WARN_ON() for seq_buf_strlen() and
drop it from seq_buf_str().

Add tests comparing seq_buf_strlen() against strlen() of seq_buf_str()
for empty, appended, truncated, exactly full, and overflowed buffers,
checking that seq_buf_strlen() alone terminates a full buffer, and
checking that a zero-sized seq_buf reports an empty string from both
accessors without touching the buffer.

Tests passed under qemu on ARCH=x86_64 with GCC 16.2.0 and CONFIG_KASAN=y,
and on big-endian ARCH=s390 with GCC s390x-linux-gnu 16.2.0.
