libfstree: guard against possible overflow in readlink()
*in theory*, say on a 32 bit system, we could have a 32 bit size_t and
a 64 bit off_t. If the filesystem permitted this, we *could* then have
a symlink with a target > 4G. Or the target is exacetely 4G, but
adding a null-terminator could exceed addressable memory.
This commit adds a check to guard against such an overflow and throw
an error, instead of silently wrapping around.
