Subject: misc.cc: Resize hostname to final size in getCarbonHostname()

misc.cc: Resize hostname to final size in getCarbonHostname()

In 5c21b47fbc35ddcb8d939eb8541c6c3bad1080a8 we change how
hostname is allocated. We allocate getMaxHostNameSize for string,
then give the raw buffer for gethostname function, but forget to
resize the string into actual result length, causing the carbon
output to include trailing NUL bytes after hostname.
