If a socket's path name would overflow sun_path, try to make it fit by
temporarily changing to the directory the socket is in and using the
path's basename in sun_path.
This should help for the case where the basename of the socket does fit
in sun_path, even if the rest of the path doesn't.
The code wasn't checking for overflow before copying the socket path
name to to the sun_path field, which is usually much smaller than
PATH_MAX.

valgrind reports:
Syscall param write(buf) points to uninitialised byte(s)
In this case, it is a false positive, but adding this single memset at
attach start-up means the program is now clean when run with "valgrind
--trace-children=yes dtach -c ...", which can make future debugging
easier.
attach.c did not correctly handle a read from stdin when read returned
an error. The code assigned the return value of read to pkt.len (an
unsigned char) before checking the value. This prevented the error check
from working correctly, since an unsigned integer can never be < 0.
A packet with an invalid length was then sent to the master, which then
sent 255 bytes of garbage to the program.
Fix the bug in attach.c and the unchecked packet length bug in master.c.

paranoid about this, and only remove the specified file if connect says
the connection was refused and stat says the file is a socket.
Also dtach -A now only tries to create the socket if the connection was
refused or the socket did not exist, instead of on any random error as
before.
exiting silently.
Also make sure the master process waits until the client attaches when using
the -A and -c modes, so that the error message has a chance of being seen.
