seq_buf: Introduce DECLARE_SEQ_BUF and seq_buf_str()
[ Upstream commit dcc4e5728eeaeda84878ca0018758cff1abfca21 ]
Solve two ergonomic issues with struct seq_buf;
1) Too much boilerplate is required to initialize:
struct seq_buf s;
char buf[32];
seq_buf_init(s, buf, sizeof(buf));
Instead, we can build this directly on the stack. Provide
DECLARE_SEQ_BUF() macro to do this:
DECLARE_SEQ_BUF(s, 32);
2) %NUL termination is fragile and requires 2 steps to get a valid
C String (and is a layering violation exposing the "internals" of
seq_buf):
seq_buf_terminate(s);
do_something(s->buffer);
Instead, we can just return s->buffer directly after terminating it in
the refactored seq_buf_terminate(), now known as seq_buf_str():
do_something(seq_buf_str(s));
