Avoid use of non-portable strnlen() in pgstat_clip_activity().

The use of strnlen rather than strlen was just paranoia. Instead of
giving up on the paranoia, just implement the safeguard
differently. And add a comment explaining why we're careful.

I think it should say a NUL byte or a \0 byte, not a NULL byte.  NULL
is a pointer value.
