Rasmus Villemoes 94df290404 lib/string.c: introduce strreplace()
Strings are sometimes sanitized by replacing a certain character (often
'/') by another (often '!').  In a few places, this is done the same way
Schlemiel the Painter would do it.  Others are slightly smarter but still
do multiple strchr() calls.  Introduce strreplace() to do this using a
single function call and a single pass over the string.

One would expect the return value to be one of three things: void, s, or
the number of replacements made.  I chose the fourth, returning a pointer
to the end of the string.  This is more likely to be useful (for example
allowing the caller to avoid a strlen call).
