cbfstool: Simplify the common buffer_splice() function's interface
Previously, this function allowed one to pass a size of 0 in order to indicate that the entire buffer should be copied. However, the semantics of calling it this way were non-obvious: The desired behavior was clear when the offset was also 0, but what was the expected outcome when the offset was nonzero, since carrying over the original size in this case would be an error? In fact, it turns out that it always ignored the provided offset when the size was zero. This commit eliminates all special handling of 0; thus, the resulting buffer is exactly as large as requested, even if it's degenerate. Since the only consumer that actually called the function with a size of 0 was buffer_clone(), no other files required changes.
