the current apr_strcat does strlen() twice for each argument, this patch
makes it happen just once.  it would also be handy to have an apr_pstrcatn
(name debatable) that returns the calculated length so the caller can
avoid another strlen(), something like:

apr_size_t total_len;
apr_status_t status = apr_pstrcatn(pool, &total_len, ..., NULL);

then apr_pstrcat() would just be a wrapper around apr_pstrcatn().
i'll get a patch together if the name/prototype is agreed on.
