timeofday() assumed that the output of pg_strftime() could not contain % signs, other than the one it explicitly asks for with %%. However, we don't have that guarantee with respect to the time zone name (%Z). A crafted time zone setting could abuse the subsequent snprintf() call, resulting in crashes or disclosure of server memory. To fix, split the pg_strftime() call into two and then treat the outputs as literal strings, not a snprintf format string. The extra pg_strftime() call doesn't really cost anything, since the bulk of the conversion work was done by pg_localtime(). Also, adjust buffer widths so that we're not risking string truncation during the snprintf() step, as that would create a hazard of producing mis-encoded output. This also fixes a latent portability issue: the format string expects an int, but tp.tv_usec is long int on many platforms.
