Summary:                    Symbol exports for strlcat and strlcpy
Description: 
Change "2009-03-18 01:55 +0000 [r182802-182808]  Kevin P. Fleming
<kpfleming at digium.com>" limited the global symbols exported from asterisk. 
I would like to request that strl* be added back to the exports so that
modules may use these calls on platforms which don't have native support
(ie. Linux).

Modules that used these calls on 1.4.24 and before are now broken and will
fail with a loader error at startup.

I'm pretty sure that we want you to use ast_copy_string() in preference to
strlcpy, since they do exactly the same thing.  As to strlcat, I'm not sure
whether we want to export that symbol or not.
