strbuf: introduce strbuf_addstrings() to repeatedly add a string

In a following commit we are going to port code from
"t/helper/test-sha256.c", t/helper/test-hash.c and "t/t0015-hash.sh" to
a new "t/unit-tests/t-hash.c" file using the recently added unit test
framework.

To port code like: perl -e "$| = 1; print q{aaaaaaaaaa} for 1..100000;"
we are going to need a new strbuf_addstrings() function that repeatedly
adds the same string a number of times to a buffer.

Such a strbuf_addstrings() function would already be useful in
"json-writer.c" and "builtin/submodule-helper.c" as both of these files
already have code that repeatedly adds the same string. So let's
introduce such a strbuf_addstrings() function in "strbuf.{c,h}" and use
it in both "json-writer.c" and "builtin/submodule-helper.c".

We use the "strbuf_addstrings" name as this way strbuf_addstr() and
strbuf_addstrings() would be similar for strings as strbuf_addch() and
strbuf_addchars() for characters.
