The strncat() function is similar, except that
* it will use at most n bytes from src; and
* src does not need to be null-terminated if it contains n or more bytes.
If src contains n or more bytes, strncat() writes n+1 bytes to dest (n
from src plus the terminating null byte). Therefore, the size of dest
must be at least strlen(dest)+n+1.
