Summary: tsk_fs_make_ls should return its buffer

Initial Comment:
 It would be nice if it returned a string value of the "ls" buffer,
rather than void, so that the call could just be put in a printf
functional-style, and save a line of code.

Message:
I think this would be too confusing because the buffer is passed by the
caller and it could result in some people trying to free it twice.
