Subject: [PATCH 01/17] patch 9.2.0078: [security]: stack-buffer-overflow in
build_stl_str_hl()
Problem: A stack-buffer-overflow occurs when rendering a statusline
with a multi-byte fill character on a very wide terminal.
The size check in build_stl_str_hl() uses the cell width
rather than the byte length, allowing the subsequent fill
loop to write beyond the 4096-byte MAXPATHL buffer
(ehdgks0627, un3xploitable).
Solution: Update the size check to account for the byte length of
the fill character (using MB_CHAR2LEN).
