Call strcspn(3) to find the length of a string terminated by NUL, NL or
slash instead of open-coding it. Adopt its return type, size_t, to
support strings of arbitrary length. Use that type in callers as well
for variables and function parameters that receive the return value.

Support names of any length in base_name_compare() and df_name_compare()
by using size_t for their length parameters. They pass the length on to
memcmp(3), which also takes it as a size_t.

On platforms where `size_t` does not have the same width as `unsigned
long`, passing a pointer to the former when a pointer to the latter is
expected can lead to problems.
Windows and 32-bit Linux are among the affected platforms.
In this instance, we want to store the size of the blob that was read in
that variable. However, `read_blob_data_from_index()` passes that
pointer to `read_object_file()` which expects an `unsigned long *`.
Which means that on affected platforms, the variable is not fully
populated and part of its value is left uninitialized. (On Big-Endian
platforms, this problem would be even worse.)
The consequence is that depending on the uninitialized memory's
contents, we may erroneously reject perfectly fine attributes.
Let's address this by passing a pointer to a variable of the expected
data type.

The old version we currently use runs in node.js v12.x, which is being
deprecated in GitHub Actions. The new version uses node.js v16.x.
Incidentally, this also avoids the warning about the deprecated
`::set-output::` workflow command because the newer version of the
`github-script` Action uses the recommended new way to specify outputs.

Adjust the GitHub CI to newer ubuntu release.
* jx/ci-ubuntu-fix:
ci: install python on ubuntu
ci: use the same version of p4 on both Linux and macOS
ci: remove the pipe after "p4 -V" to catch errors
github-actions: run gcc-8 on ubuntu-20.04 image
Update GitHub CI to use actions/checkout@v3; use of the older
checkout@v2 gets annoying deprecation notices.
* od/ci-use-checkout-v3-when-applicable:
ci(main): upgrade actions/checkout to v3
