    af_pan: Fix sscanf formats to work with buggy sscanf implementations · e3a1eb9e
    Hendrik Leppkes authored
    Some implementations of sscanf do not handle a space before a trailing %n
    properly.
    
    As an example, MSVC's does this for the second insatnce in this patch, for
    an input of "0x3:c0=c1:c1=c0":
        1) Match the final "c0" or "c1".
        2) Realize it's at the end of the string.
        3) Check for %n.
        4) There is no %n, but a space instead.
        5) Leave 'len' unitilialized.
    
    So, move it out of the sscanf format strings, and call skip_spaces instead.
    
    This bug does not affect skip_spaces since %n is the first and only formatting
    string.
