Based on Vladislav Egorovs work on the preprocessor, but split
out to a util functionality that should be universal. Setup, teardown,
memory handling and general layout is modeled around the hash_table
and the set, to make it familiar for everyone.
A notable change is that this implementation is always null terminated.
The rationale is that it will be less error-prone, as one might
access the buffer directly, thereby reading a non-terminated string.
Also, vsnprintf and friends prints the null-terminator.

V2: Address review feedback from Timothy and Grazvydas
- Fix MINGW preprocessor check
- Changed len from uint to int
- Make string argument const in append function
- Move to header and inline append function
- Add crimp_to_fit function for resizing buffer
V3: Move include of ralloc to string_buffer.h
V4: Use u_string.h for a cross-platform working vsnprintf
V5: Remember to cast to char * in crimp function
V6: Address review feedback from Nicolai
- Handle !str->buf in buffer_create
- Ensure va_end is always called in buffer_append_all
- Add overflow check in buffer_append_len
- Do not expose buffer_space_left, just remove it
- Clarify why a loop is used in vprintf, change to for-loop
- Add a va_copy to buffer_vprintf to fix failure to append arguments
when having to resize the buffer for vsnprintf.
V7: Address more review feedback from Nicolai
- Add missing va_end corresponding to va_copy
- Error check failure to allocate in crimp_to_fit
