It would be nice to have areadlink_with_size treat 0 as auto select some lower bound.
Yes, that sounds good. However, I didn't see why that would entail changing SYMLINK_MAX from 1024 to 1023, or why the patch would affect the documented API.
How about the attached patch instead? When the guessed size is zero it typically avoids a realloc by using a small stack buffer.
