    Defines: strtrim()

    strtrim(dst, src, set, ends)
    copies src to dst, but will skip leading characters in set if "ends"
    is <= 0, and will skip trailing characters in set if ends is >= 0.
    Thus there are three cases:
	ends < 0 :	trim a prefix
	ends = 0 :	trim a prefix and a suffix both
	ends > 0 :	trim a suffix
    To compress internal runs, see strpack.  The normal use of this is
    strtrim(buffer, buffer, " \t", 0);  The result is the address of the
    NUL which now terminates dst.
