bddcd9b095 Remove superfluous casts
-  Every non-const pointer converts automatically to void *.
-  Every pointer converts automatically to void *.
-  void * converts to any other pointer.
-  const void * converts to any other const pointer.
-  Integer variables convert to each other.

I changed the declaration of a few variables in order to allow removing
a cast.

However, I didn't attempt to edit casts inside comparisons, since they
are very delicate.  I also kept casts in variadic functions, since they
are necessary, and in allocation functions, because I have other plans
for them.

I also changed a few casts to int that are better as ptrdiff_t.

This change has triggered some warnings about const correctness issues,
which have also been fixed in this patch (see for example src/login.c).

62172f6fb5 Call NULL by its name
In variadic functions we still do the cast.  In POSIX, it's not
necessary, since NULL is required to be of type 'void *', and 'void *'
is guaranteed to have the same alignment and representation as 'char *'.
However, since ISO C still doesn't mandate that, and moreover they're
doing dubious stuff by adding nullptr, let's be on the cautious side.
Also, C++ requires that NULL is _not_ 'void *', but either plain 0 or
some magic stuff.

220b352b70 Use strlcpy(3) instead of its pattern
-  Since strncpy(3) is not designed to write strings, but rather
   (null-padded) character sequences (a.k.a. unterminated strings), we
   had to manually append a '\0'.  strlcpy(3) creates strings, so they
   are always terminated.  This removes dependencies between lines, and
   also removes chances of accidents.

-  Repurposing strncpy(3) to create strings requires calculating the
   location of the terminating null byte, which involves a '-1'
   calculation.  This is a source of off-by-one bugs.  The new code has
   no '-1' calculations, so there's almost-zero chance of these bugs.

-  strlcpy(3) doesn't padd with null bytes.  Padding is relevant when
   writing fixed-width buffers to binary files, when interfacing certain
   APIs (I believe utmpx requires null padding at lease in some
   systems), or when sending them to other processes or through the
   network.  This is not the case, so padding is effectively ignored.

-  strlcpy(3) requires that the input string is really a string;
   otherwise it crashes (SIGSEGV).  Let's check if the input strings are
   really strings:

   -  lib/fields.c:
      -  'cp' was assigned from 'newft', and 'newft' comes from fgets(3).

   -  lib/gshadow.c:
      -  strlen(string) is calculated a few lines above.

   -  libmisc/console.c:
      -  'cons' comes from getdef_str, which is a bit cryptic, but seems
         to generate strings, I guess.1

   -  libmisc/date_to_str.c:
      -  It receives a string literal.  :)

   -  libmisc/utmp.c:
      -  'tname' comes from ttyname(3), which returns a string.

   -  src/su.c:
      -  'tmp_name' has been passed to strcmp(3) a few lines above.

e2df287aad Don't redefine errno(3)
It is Undefined Behavior to declare errno (see NOTES in its manual page).
Instead of using the errno dummy declaration, use one that doesn't need
a comment.
