Fix redis error reporting

est31 · est31 · commit 57a461930ba1 · 2016-01-08T15:37:11.000+01:00
Previously, we assumed that reply-&gt;str was NULL
terminated. However, this turned out to be not true,
as users reported crashes in strlen connected to
where reply-&gt;str was appended to an std::string.

Use the method recomended by the docs, to read the
length separately.
