The return value does not include the NULL byte. To ensure no truncation occurs, the return value must be strictly less than the buffer size.

Replace calls of
sprintfwith the safersnprintf.snprintfaccepts a capacity to ensure bytes are not written beyond the capacity.sprintfis replaced with calls tobson_snprintfin libmongocrypt for portability and consistency.bson_snprintfalways NULL terminates.snprintfmay not always NULL terminate (see Remarks on MSVC docs). Since kms-message does not depend on libbson,snprintfis used in kms-message, and the NULL terminator is added manually where needed.Return values of
snprintfandbson_snprintfare checked. fb53369 fixes an existing return value check.
