ofpbuf_put_hex doesn't know buf's length and only checks buf's content
to process. This is dangerous. This patch fixes it.

I don't understand this patch yet.  ovs_scan_len() should always
null-terminate buf.  Are there cases where it does not do that?

In scan_set, '\0' is not always put in the buf.
Ok, I think this patch is not the correct way to fix this issue,
I will come up with a new version.

Thanks,
Yifeng
