Truncate strings in tarCreateHeader() with strlcpy(), not sprintf().
Noah Misch <noah@leadboat.com>
Truncate strings in tarCreateHeader() with strlcpy(), not sprintf(). This supplements the GNU libc bug #6530 workarounds introduced in commit 54cd4f04576833abc394e131288bf3dd7dcf4806. On affected systems, a tar-format pg_basebackup failed when some filename beneath the data directory was not valid character data in the postmaster/walsender locale. Back-patch to 9.1, where pg_basebackup was introduced. Extant, bug-prone conversion specifications receive only ASCII bytes or involve low-importance messages.
