We've been avoiding PATH_MAX whenever possible. This patch makes
get_pathname() return a strbuf and updates the callers to take
advantage of this. The code is simplified as we no longer need to
worry about buffer overflow.

vsnpath() behavior is changed slightly: previously it always clears
the buffer before writing, now it just appends. Fortunately this is a
static function and all of its callers prepare the buffer properly:
git_path() gets the buffer from get_pathname() which resets the
buffer, the remaining call sites start with STRBUF_INIT'd buffer.
