    kldxref: Properly handle reading strings near the end of an ELF file
    
    If a string is at or near the end of an input file and the amount of
    remaining data in the file is smaller than the maximum string size,
    the pread(2) system call would return a short read which is treated as
    an error.  Instead, add a new helper function for reading a string
    which permits short reads so long as the data read from the file
    contains a terminated string.
