[AUDIT] break large execve argument logging into smaller messages
execve arguments can be quite large. There is no limit on the number of arguments and a 4G limit on the size of an argument. this patch prints those aruguments in bite sized pieces. a userspace size limitation of 8k was discovered so this keeps messages around 7.5k single arguments larger than 7.5k in length are split into multiple records and can be identified as aX[Y]= Signed-off-by: Eric Paris <eparis@redhat.com>
