Maybe this is what you're looking for?
>From epan/tvbuff.h:
/** Find size of stringz (NUL-terminated string) by looking for terminating
* NUL. The size of the string includes the terminating NUL.

* If the NUL isn't found, it throws the appropriate exception.

Actually, is there a function that will just get the length of said
string? I don't need to do anything with the string itself other than
add it to the proto_tree and of course increment my offset. I know I
could just g_free the string immediately after fetching it, but this
seems like it has a little overhead.
