The loop advances the pointer via start_address += len.

Hi hackers!
SerializeLibraryState() writes 1 byte too much into the buffer pointed to by
start_address. This is the very last '\0' it writes after the loop. Attached is
a patch that fixes the problem by accounting for that extra byte in
EstimateLibraryStateSpace()
The last '\0' written isn't performed in relation to the size, but at a fixed
index in the buffer:
...
}
start_address[0] = '\0';
How would that cause a buffer overflow?
