Title:
  use the size of the data when determining the server response

Status in whoopsie package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in whoopsie source package in Focal:
  Fix Committed
Status in whoopsie source package in Groovy:
  Fix Committed
Status in whoopsie source package in Hirsute:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  [Note]
  This SRU has been built in a security-only PPA and should be released to both 
-updates and -security.

  [Impact]
  whoopsie's server_response code is using "g_string_append" instead of 
"g_string_append_len" which has the knock on effect of sending too much data to 
its "handle_response". This ends up being a problem if the daisy servers are 
running on Ubuntu 18.04 instead of Ubuntu 16.04.

  Here's an example when using whoopsie on groovy to send a crash to a
  bionic daisy server:

  [15:35:30] Sent; server replied with: No error
  [15:35:30] Response code: 200
  [15:35:30] Initial response data is: 2bbb776e-64e6-11eb-a8d6-00163eddedf4 
OOPSID
  0

  [15:35:30] Got command: OOPSID

  We can see a fair number of extra characters (\n0\n\n) after the OOSID
  command. This becomes more problematic when daisy requests a core dump
  from the client as the CORE command won't match and the client will
  never send the core dump.

  [Test Case]
  Setup a Bionic version of the Error Tracker:
  0) modify /etc/hosts so daisy.staging.ubuntu.com points to the IP of the 
apache server for daisy
  1) sudo service stop whoopsie
  2) sudo CRASH_DB_URL=https://daisy.staging.ubuntu.com whoopsie -f
  3) Run test/submit-crash test-crashes/hirsute/amd64/_bin_cat.2001.crash
  4) check the whoopsie log file for "Got command: OOPSID" and extra data.

  With the version of whoopsie from -proposed this will not happen.
  Additionally, a regression test should be run against the staging
  version of the error tracker by removing the entry from /etc/hosts for
  the daisy.staging server. After confirming that one test crash works
  one should also send a python crash, and an end of life release crash
  as those all generate different response codes from the server.

  [Regression Potential]
  The code being changed is clearly wrong and doesn't confirm to the curl API 
https://curl.se/libcurl/c/CURLOPT_WRITEFUNCTION.html. Additionallly, this is 
similar to the code before r707 of daisy which introduced this change so there 
is little chance of regression. That being said we are running a regression 
test to ensure whoopsie works with servers running Ubuntu 16.04.
