Subject: [PATCH] sed: handle very long execution lines (tiny change)

If sed is called with an excessively long execution line, then it is
prone to an out of bounds memory access.

The problem is that the length of the execution line, which is a
size_t, is temporarily stored in an int. This means that on systems
which have a 64 bit size_t and a 32 bit int (e.g. linux amd64) an
execution line which exceeds 2 GB will overflow int. If it is just
slightly larger than 2 GB, the negative int value is used as an
array index to finish the execution line string with '\0' which
therefore triggers the out of bounds access.

This problem is probably never triggered in reality, but can be
provoked like this (given that 'e' support is compiled in):

$ dd if=/dev/zero bs=1M count=2049 | tr '\0' e > e-command.txt
$ sed -f e-command.txt /etc/fstab
Segmentation fault (core dumped)

Also adjust another int/size_t conversion, even though it is a
purely cosmetic change, because it can never be larger than 4096.

* sed/execute.c (execute_program) [case 'e']: Declare cmd_length
to be of type size_t, not int.  Likewise for "n" just below.
* NEWS (Bug fixes): Mention it.
