xattr-util: rework getxattr_at_malloc()

Let's return the size in a return parameter instead of the return value.
And if NULL is specified this tells us the caller doesn't care about the
size and expects a NUL terminated string. In that case look for an
embedded NUL byte, and refuse in that case.

This should lock things down a bit, as we'll systematically refuse
embedded NUL strings now when we expect strings.
