[PATCH v2 2/2] lib/ts_kmp: fix integer overflow in pattern length calculation

[Josh Law]

From: Josh Law <objecting@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

The ts_kmp algorithm computes the required allocation size by
multiplying the pattern length by the size of an integer. If the
pattern length is sufficiently large, this can overflow the 32-bit
unsigned int before it is widened to size_t. This could result in an
undersized allocation and a subsequent heap buffer overflow when
copying the pattern.

Fix this by explicitly checking that the length does not exceed
the maximum safe threshold before calculating the buffer sizes.
