Change subject: res_pjsip: Ensure sanitized XML is NULL terminated.
......................................................................

res_pjsip: Ensure sanitized XML is NULL terminated.

The ast_sip_sanitize_xml function is used to sanitize
a string for placement into XML. This is done by examining
an input string and then appending values to an output
buffer. The function used by its implementation, strncat,
has specific behavior that was not taken into account.
If the size of the input string exceeded the available
output buffer size it was possible for the sanitization
function to write past the output buffer itself causing
a crash. The crash would either occur because it was
writing into memory it shouldn't be or because the resulting
string was not NULL terminated.

This change keeps count of how much remaining space is
available in the output buffer for text and only allows
strncat to use that amount.

Since this was exposed by the res_pjsip_pidf_digium_body_supplement
module attempting to send a large message the maximum allowed
message size has also been increased in it.

A unit test has also been added which confirms that the
ast_sip_sanitize_xml function is providing NULL terminated
output even when the input length exceeds the output
buffer size.
