strftime(3) makes no guarantees about the contents of the buffer if the
formatted string wouldn't fit in the buffer. It simply returns 0, and
it's the programmer's responsibility to do the right thing after that.
Let's write the string "future" if there's an error, similar to what we
do with gmtime(3)'s errors.
Also, `buf[size - 1] = '\0';` didn't make sense. If the copy fits,
strftime(3) guarantees to terminate with NUL. If it doesn't, the entire
contents of buf are undefined, so adding a NUL at the end of the buffer
would be dangerous: the string could contain anything, such as
"gimme root access now". Remove that, now that we set the string to
"future", as with gmtime(3) errors. This setting to '\0' comes from the
times when we used strncpy(3) in the implementation, and should have
been removed when I changed it to use strlcpy(3); however, I didn't
check we didn't need it anymore.
