In output() we sprintf() the result of find_pid_slot(). We print the pid
slot to the buffer with %u and have space for two digits of pid slot.
find_pid_slot() potentially returns PIDSLOT_NOT_FOUND (-1), which when
printed with %u is 4294967295 - ten digits.

Fix it two ways, use snprintf() - truncated output is better than a
buffer overflow. And allocate more space in the buffer, 32 bytes is a
nice round size, and gives us space for everything.
