pkt-line: add size parameter to packet_length()
hex2chr() takes care not to run over the end of a NUL-terminated string.
It's used in packet_length(), but both callers of that function pass a
four-byte buffer, making NUL-checks unnecessary. packet_length() could
accidentally be used with a pointer to a buffer of unknown size at new
call-sites, though, and the compiler wouldn't complain.
Add a size parameter plus check, and remove the NUL-checks by calling
hexval() directly. This trades three NUL checks against one size check
and the ability to report the use of a short buffer at runtime.
If any of the four bytes is NUL or -- more generally -- not a
hexadecimal digit, then packet_length() still returns a negative value.
