+ * nm_str_buf_set_size:
+ * @strbuf: the initialized #NMStrBuf
+ * @new_len: the new length
+ * @honor_do_bzero_mem: if %TRUE, the shrinked memory will be cleared, if
+ *   do_bzero_mem is set. This should be usually set to %TRUE, unless
+ *   you know that the shrinked memory does not contain data that requires to be
+ *   cleared. When growing the size, this value has no effect.
+ * @reserve_exact: when growing the buffer, reserve the exact amount of bytes.
+ *   If %FALSE, the buffer may allocate more memory than requested to grow
+ *   exponentially.
+ *
+ * This is like g_string_set_size(). If new_len is smaller than the
+ * current length, the string gets truncated (excess memory will be cleared).
+ *
+ * When extending the length, the added bytes are undefined (like with
+ * g_string_set_size(). Likewise, if you first pre-allocate a buffer with
+ * nm_str_buf_maybe_expand(), then write to the bytes, and finally set
+ * the appropriate size, then that works as expected (by not clearing the
+ * pre-existing, grown buffer).
