    seq_buf: Introduce DECLARE_SEQ_BUF and seq_buf_str()
    
    Solve two ergonomic issues with struct seq_buf;
    
    1) Too much boilerplate is required to initialize:
    
            struct seq_buf s;
            char buf[32];
    
            seq_buf_init(s, buf, sizeof(buf));
    
    Instead, we can build this directly on the stack. Provide
    DECLARE_SEQ_BUF() macro to do this:
    
            DECLARE_SEQ_BUF(s, 32);
    
    2) %NUL termination is fragile and requires 2 steps to get a valid
       C String (and is a layering violation exposing the "internals" of
       seq_buf):
    
            seq_buf_terminate(s);
            do_something(s->buffer);
    
    Instead, we can just return s->buffer directly after terminating it in
    the refactored seq_buf_terminate(), now known as seq_buf_str():
    
            do_something(seq_buf_str(s));
