fix(libc): fix snprintf corner cases

The number formatting routine in snprintf was trying to be clever with
the buffer handling, but tripped over its own feet: snprintf() users
expect output to be emitted, even if not everything fits into the
buffer. The current code gives up completely when the buffer is too
small.

Fix those issues and simplify the code on the way, by consequently using
the CHECK_AND_PUT_CHAR() macro, which both checks for the buffer size
correctly, but also keeps track of the number of should-be-printed
characters for the return value.
