Fix string truncation to be multibyte-aware in text_name and bpchar_name.
Previously, casts to name could generate invalidly-encoded results.
Also, make these functions match namein() more exactly, by consistently
using palloc0() instead of ad-hoc zeroing code.
Back-patch to all supported branches.
