[Patch v4 03/10] util: add string-util.[ch]

[david at tethera.net]

From: David Bremner <bremner at debian.org>

This is to give a home to strtok_len. It's a bit silly to add a header
for one routine, but it needs to be shared between several compilation
units (or at least that's the most natural design).
