I think it might be good to be consistent with the '%s' specifier code
and have some sort of upper bound set, even if it is much more likely
that len will get to 0 before field_width does.

Good point. The *str check is redundant, since after the call to
strspn/strcspn we know there are at least len bytes in str, so that
check can be removed.
