elf_note_prpsinfo: handle more failures from proc_getargv()

Description

elf_note_prpsinfo: handle more failures from proc_getargv()

Resulting sbuf_len() from proc_getargv() might return 0 if user mangled
ps_strings enough. Also, sbuf_len() API contract is to return -1 if the
buffer overflowed. The later should not occur because get_ps_strings()
checks for catenated length, but check for this subtle detail explicitly
as well to be more resilent.

The end result is that p_comm is used in this situations.
