dbus-broker: patch CVE-2022-31212

Details: https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2022-31212

A detailed writeup[1] is referenced by the nvd report, which
describes that the vulnerability itself is not in the application,
rather in a dependency of it, in c-shutil, which is pulled in as
a submodule.

Pick the patch from this submodule that fixes a stack overflow, and
adds a test explictly verifying the described vulnerability.

Subject: [PATCH] strnspn: fix buffer overflow
Fix the strnspn and strncspn functions to use a properly sized buffer.
It used to be 1 byte too short. Checking for `0xff` in a string will
thus write `0xff` once byte beyond the stack space of the local buffer.
Note that the public API does not allow to pass `0xff` to those
functions. Therefore, this is a read-only buffer overrun, possibly
causing bogus reports from the parser, but still well-defined.
