Change the type_from_string() macro into a function and drop the support for passing len < 0. Support for len < 0 was added in fe8e3b71805 (Refactor type_from_string() to allow continuing after detecting an error, 2014-09-10), but no callers use that form. Let's drop it to simplify this, and in preparation for simplifying these even further.
Given the recent fallout of oversimplifying we've seen in other topic, this line of thinking makes me nauseated, but let's see how well this works this time around. At least, replacing an already queued topic with v2 would not increase the number of topics that are supposedly in-flight but not quite moving due to lack of reviews and responses, unlike bunch of totally new patches ;-) Will replace. Thanks.
