While EUC_CN supports only 1- and 2-byte sequences (CS0, CS1), the mb<->wchar conversion functions allow 3-byte sequences beginning SS2, SS3. Change pg_encoding_max_length() to return 3, not 2, to close a hypothesized buffer overrun if a corrupted string is converted to wchar and back again in a newly allocated buffer. We might reconsider that in master (ie harmonizing in a different direction), but this change seems better for the back-branches. Also change pg_euccn_mblen() to report SS2 and SS3 characters as having length 3 (following the example of EUC_KR). Even though such characters would not pass verification, it's remotely possible that invalid bytes could be used to compute a buffer size for use in wchar conversion.
