The reason is to forbid using strcat directly and force to use the wrappers.
I had two options in my mind, one that will use the virStrcatInplace function
with return values 0 and 1 to determine whether something actually happened or
only the "if (x) strcat (y, x)" as a macro without any return value.
I get the idea, but my point was that I don't get why we should forbid
using strcat() by itself.

In that case it would be nice to provide some alternative :).
virStringAppend?

Yes we have buffer, but this macro will be used in the buffer code itself
and I guess it would be strange to use a buffer inside a buffer function.
Since that will not be changing the input data, it might be safer to
just sacrifice few bytes of memory and do virAsprintf() into new
buffer. But if you like this approach more, feel free to use it.
