libctf: make ctf_dump not crash on OOM
ctf_dump calls ctf_str_append extensively but never checks to see if it
returns NULL (on OOM). If it ever does, we truncate the string we are
appending to and leak it!
Instead, create a variant of ctf_str_append that returns the *original
string* on OOM, and use it in ctf-dump. It is far better to omit a tiny
piece of a dump on OOM than to omit a bigger piece, and it is also
better to do this in what is after all purely debugging code than it is
to uglify ctf-dump.c with huge numbers of checks for the out-of-memory
case. Slightly truncated debugging output is better than no debugging
output at all and an out-of-memory message.
New in v4.
