    libnv: verify that string is null terminated
    
    During unpacking, we ensure that we do not read beyond the
    declared size. However, unpack uses a function that copies
    null-terminated strings. Prior to this commit, if the last string
    was not null-terminated, it could result in copying data into a
    buffer smaller than the allocated size.
