Hey,

If there are no objections, I'd like to deprecate eina_tmpstr_strlen() 
and create eina_tmpstr_len() that is unlike the former, not crazily 
confusing and error prone.

With a name like *_strlen() you'd expect a function would behave like 
strlen(), alas, it behaves like "strlen() + 1". This is mind bogglingly 
inconsistent and super confusing. There's already at least one bug 
associated with this craziness (https://phab.enlightenment.org/D1929), 
but I'm sure there are more to come/be discovered.

I suggest we deprecate it and add tmpstr_len() that behaves like 
strlen() and all of the other string len functions of the efl.

Any objections/comments?

Tom.
