[PATCH 2/6] strbuf_attach: correctly pass in `strlen() + 1` for `alloc`

This is similar to the previous commit where we corrected a use of `strbuf_attach()` to not pass in the same value for `len` and `alloc`. The sites addressed in this commit all use `strlen()`, which makes it obvious that we're working with NUL-terminated strings and that we can safely switch to providing `len + 1` for `alloc`.
