The return value of strchr is not checked for failure. If it's failure then tmp will be 0 in the (tmp-p) calculation, causing xlen to be p. xlen is later used for copying memory by way of memcpy in string creation using flb_sds_create_len. This fixes it.

The return value of `strchr` is not checked for failure. If it's failure
then `tmp` will be `0` in the `(tmp-p)` calculation, causing `xlen` to
be `p`. `xlen` is later  used for copying memory by way of `memcpy` in
string creation using `flb_sds_create_len`. This fixes it.
