I was going to ask about translation of this and other messages in
'die()' calls, but I see other messages in strbuf.c are not marked for
translation either. It may make sense to mark them all for
translation at some point in the future, but having them all
untranslated for now makes sense.
In the long run it may even be better to return an error here rather
than 'die()'ing, but again this is consistent with the rest of the
API, so this wouldn't be a good time to take that on.

Here we're just getting the length of what we're trying to format
(excluding the final NUL). As the second argument is 0, we do not
modify the strbuf at this point...

... and then we grow the strbuf by the length we previously, which
excludes the NUL character, plus one extra character, so even if pos
== len we are sure to have enough space in the strbuf ...

... and we use vsnprintf to write the formatted string to the
beginning of the buffer. sb->alloc - sb->len can be larger than
'len', which is fine as vsnprintf doesn't write anything after the NUL
character. And as 'strbuf_grow' adds len + 1 bytes to the strbuf
we'll always have enough space for adding the formatted string ...

And finally we set the strbuf to the new length. So all this is just
a very roundabout way to say that this function does the right thing
according to my reading (and tests).
