If the buffer is not big enough, snprintf() does not return the number
of bytes that have been written to the buffer, but the number of bytes
that would be needed for writing the whole string. By using this value
for the following vnc_write() calls, we send some junk at the end of
the name in case the qemu_name is longer than 1017 bytes, which could
confuse the VNC clients. Fix this by adding an additional size check
here.
