Bug#774893: /usr/bin/apt-ftparchive: Max DSC file size too small

thanks for the report, even through:
"128 KiB DSC files ought to be enough for everyone!" ;)

The attached patch should fix that issue once and for all & I will try
to get that into jessie as I believe jessie tools should be able to deal
with jessie (especially as they tend to be used to produce stretch).

The patch also fixes a memory corruption occurring if the filesize is
close to the limit. The overflow are at most two newlines through, so
this is hardly a security issue, but 'just' a crash.

(I mention that explicitly here to avoid backporters simply increasing
the limit as long-living distributions might run into this - Debian
doesn't per-se because dak isn't using apt-ftparchive anymore, but other
distros with other tools [might] do)

    128 KiB DSC files ought to be enough for everyone
    
    Your mileage may vary, but don't worry: There is more than one way to
    do it, but our one size fits all is not a bigger hammer, but an entire
    roundhouse kick! So brace yourself for the tl;dr: The limit is gone.*
    
    Beware: This fixes also the problem that a double newline is
    unconditionally added 'later' which is an overcommitment in case
    the dsc filesize is limit-2 <= x <= limit.
    
    * limited to numbers fitting into an unsigned long long.
    
    Closes: 774893
