bpo-35050: AF_ALG length check off-by-one error (GH-10058)
The length check for AF_ALG salg_name and salg_type had a off-by-one
error. The code assumed that both values are not necessarily NULL
terminated. However the Kernel code for alg_bind() ensures that the last
byte of both strings are NULL terminated.
