This adds three new functions to pkt-line.c: packet_fwrite,
packet_fwrite_fmt and packet_fflush. Besides writing a pktline flush
packet, packet_fflush also flushes the stdio buffer of the stream.

One small oddity I noticed. The definition of fwrite is
fwrite(ptr, size, nmemb, strea), where we write "nmemb" items of "size"
bytes each. I'd argue we're writing "count" single bytes, so it should
be:

  if (fwrite(buf, 1, count, f) != count)

This matters a lot for fread(), where any read shorter than "count"
(e.g., due to EOF) would return "0" rather than a partial result. But I
have a hard time imagining an implementation of fwrite() where the
distinction would matter. And grepping around, we seem to have both
forms in our code base already. So it's probably fine.

You may have wanted to say that fflush() is not needed immediately
after packet_fflush() (because the latter calls fflush()), but I
find the "or packet_fflush" in the above comment highly misleading.

It's not like you can randomly call packet_fflush() where you would
call fflush(), as the former will insert a FLUSH packet to the
output stream.  "... take care to call fflush(3) before doihng fd
writes or closing the fd" would be more appropriate.  After all, if
you make fflush() even after calling packet_fflush(), nothing will
break.

This counts the size of the buffer the wrong way.

fwrite() gives the size of each element to be written out first, and
then number of elements that are written, which is the same as
fread() but unfortunately the other way around from calloc() where
count comes first X-<.

Other than that, nicely done.

Thanks.
