Jilles Tjoelker 0ae1f793d9 libratbox: Fix undefined behaviour advancing pointer beyond end of array. 
The C standard does not allow constructing pointers beyond one past the end
of an array. Therefore, if size is an unsigned type (size_t), then
buf + size is never less than buf.

Clang on 32-bit took advantage of the undefined behaviour, causing
segfaults.

(cherry picked from commit fab79c5d25423884fc4f5e0a56d97cb59b618196)

README 

This is libircd from ircd-ratbox.  A few notes about this library:

1. Most of this code isn't anywhere near threadsafe at this point.  Don't
   hold your breath on this either.
2. The linebuf code is designed to deal with pretty much 512 bytes per line
   and that is it.  Anything beyond that length unless in raw mode, gets
   discard.  For some non-irc purposes, this can be a problem, but for
   ircd stuff its fine.
3. The helper code when transmitting data between helpers, the same 512 byte
   limit applies there as we recycle the linebuf code for this.
