    Fix parsing bug with unecognized token at EOS
    
    In get_token(), we could read one byte past the end of the
    region. This is only a big problem in the case where the region
    itself is (a) potentially hostile, and (b) not explicitly
    nul-terminated.
    
    This patch fixes the underlying bug, and also makes sure that the
    one remaining case of not-NUL-terminated potentially hostile data
    gets NUL-terminated.
    
    Fix for bug 21018, TROVE-2016-12-002, and CVE-2016-1254

+  o Major bugfixes (parsing, security):
+
+    - Fix a bug in parsing that could cause clients to read a single
+      byte past the end of an allocated region. This bug could be
+      used to cause hardened clients (built with
+      --enable-expensive-hardening) to crash if they tried to visit
+      a hostile hidden service.  Non-hardened clients are only
+      affected depending on the details of their platform's memory
+      allocator. Fixes bug 21018; bugfix on 0.2.0.8-alpha. Found by
+      using libFuzzer. Also tracked as TROVE-2016-12-002 and as
+      CVE-2016-1254.
