Subject: [PATCH] Fix buffer size when formatting current date
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

gcc-8 and glibc-2.26.9000 reports this error:

server/log.c:64:54: error: '%03d' directive output may be truncated writing between 3 and 11 bytes into a region of size between 0 and 49 [-Werror=format-truncation=]
     snprintf(current_date, sizeof(current_date), "%s.%03d", buf, (int)(1000 * (time-seconds)));
                                                      ^~~~

This patch fixes two mistakes in the get_current_date() function:

First strftime() can fail and then buf content is undefined. The patch
makes sure the buf content is properly null-termited.

Second if strftime() uses up the the whole buf array, no space will be
left for appending miliseconds to current_date value in the subsequent
snprintf() call. The patch increases current_data size so that things
will always fit.

In reality, all this should not matter because sane strftime() will
return fixed-lenght string. But for all the cases and for sake of the
compiler check this patch should be applied.
