There are many places where "int len = strlen(foo);" is written,
just for len to be passed as a parameter of size_t.

This causes truncation and then expansion
back from int to size_t. This is poor logic.

As of right now, the current set of changes
is too large to keep going, so future changes
should be in future patches. However, the codebase
works perfectly even if only these changes
were ever to be accepted. I just do not want
to change too much at a time.

    git: change variable types to match what is assigned to them
    
    There are many places where "int len = strlen(foo);" is written, just
    for len to be passed as a parameter of size_t. This causes truncation
    and then expansion back from int to size_t. Not to mention this is poor
    logic and needless truncations can add extra unneeded instructions.
