use a local temp buffer for unbuffered streams in vfprintf

this change makes it so most calls to fprintf(stderr, ...) will result
in a single writev syscall, as opposed to roughly 2*N syscalls (and
possibly more) where N is the number of format specifiers. in
principle we could use a much larger buffer, but it's best not to
increase the stack requirements too much. most messages are under 80
chars.
