I would rather change pkg_str_dup() and shm_str_dup() to allocate len+1 and add the ending
zero, right now there are not widely used and at the end is just adding an extra operation
`newbuf->s[len] = '\0';`. IMO it will be better and safer in long term, as one
can then use standard string operations with newbuf->s. For that reason, over the years
the values for variables (like avp, xavp, ...) were made zero-terminated.
STR_VTOZ macro is useful when one knows that the string is stored inside a larger buffer,
so temporarily setting an ending 0 doesn't go over allocated memory, otherwise can end
up in segmentation fault.
