  Add the strlcat function to DPDK to exist alongside the strlcpy one.
While strncat is generally safe for use for concatenation, the API for the
strlcat function is perhaps a little nicer to use, and supports truncation
detection.

See commit 5364de644a4b ("eal: support strlcpy function") for more
details on the function selection logic, since we only should be using the
DPDK-provided version when no system-provided version is present.

Hi - I'd like to backport this to 18.11 stable branch. Not having it is
starting to cause build failures with backports. Let me know if any
objection.

thanks,
Kevin.

Go for it! No objections here, I think it makes sense.
