    Lift 16kB limit of log message output · 80583c0e

    Traditionally we had 16kB limit when formatting log messages for
    output, because it was easier to arrange for the caller to have
    a reasonably big buffer and pass it down without ever worrying
    about reallocating.
    
    This changes the calling convention of pretty_print_commit() to
    lift this limit.  Instead of the buffer and remaining length, it
    now takes a pointer to the pointer that points at the allocated
    buffer, and another pointer to the location that stores the
    allocated length, and reallocates the buffer as necessary.
    
    To support the user format, the error return of interpolate()
    needed to be changed.  It used to return a bool telling "Ok the
    result fits", or "Sorry, I had to truncate it".  Now it returns
    0 on success, and returns the size of the buffer it wants in
    order to fit the whole result.
