rust: str: improve safety comment for CString::try_from_fmt

Improve the safety comment for the `inc_len()` call in
`CString::try_from_fmt()` to clarify why `bytes_written()` is
guaranteed not to exceed the buffer capacity.

The current comment states that bytes written is bounded by size,
but does not explain that this invariant is maintained because:
1. The `Formatter` is created with `size` as its capacity limit
2. The `?` operators on `write_fmt` and `write_str` ensure early
   return if writing exceeds this limit
