This fixes two bugs in read_line function. Both are exposed when
running gksudo --debug:
- First, when read() fails, the printed value will come from
uninitialised memory. This results in stuff like
"GNOME_SUDO_PASSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS..." being printed.
- Second, the null terminator is off-by-one, resulting in
garbage being printed at the end of each line. This may
also lead to memory corruption (for n >= 256)!

* libgksu/gksu-run-helper.c: accepted patch by Michael Vogt, from

it looks like it's not really needed, so it's untested.
GKSu is a library that provides a Gtk+ frontend to su and sudo. It
supports login shells and preserving environment when acting as a
su frontend. It is useful to menu items or other graphical programs
that need to ask a user's password to run another program as another
user.
