util-lib: optionally, when writing a string to a file, verify string on failure
With this change, the idiom:
r = write_string_file(p, buf, 0);
if (r < 0) {
if (verify_one_line_file(p, buf) > 0)
r = 0;
}
gets reduced to:
r = write_string_file(p, buf, WRITE_STRING_FILE_VERIFY_ON_FAILURE);
i.e. when writing the string fails and the new flag
WRITE_STRING_FILE_VERIFY_ON_FAILURE is specified we'll not return a
failure immediately, but check the contents of the file. If it matches
what we wanted to write we suppress the error and exit cleanly.
