AUDIT: Avoid log pollution by untrusted strings.
We log strings from userspace, such as arguments to open(). These could be formatted to contain \n followed by fake audit log entries. Provide a function for logging such strings, which gives a hex dump when the string contains anything but basic printable ASCII characters. Use it for logging filenames.
