formpost: avoid silent snprintf() truncation
The previous use of snprintf() could make libcurl silently truncate some input data and not report that back on overly large input, which could make data get sent over the network in a bad format. Example: $ curl --form 'a=b' -H "Content-Type: $(perl -e 'print "A"x4100')"
