[PATCH] ui-shared: fix segfault in cgit_set_title_from_path

The following invocation of strncat uses a bogus size and
caused segfaults on my system:
strncat(new_title, ctx.page.title, sizeof(new_title) - strlen(new_title) - 1);
Since str*cat functions are all bug-prone and slow (need to
search for '\0' at every invocation), switch to the safer and
easier-to-use strbuf* git API instead.
