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.

    git: edit 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.
