Bugfix and optimize archive_wstring_append_from_mbs()
    
    The cal to mbrtowc() or mbtowc() should read up to mbs_length
    bytes and not wcs_length. This avoids out-of-bounds reads.
    
    mbrtowc() and mbtowc() return (size_t)-1 wit errno EILSEQ when
    they encounter an invalid multibyte character and (size_t)-2 when
    they they encounter an incomplete multibyte character. As we return
    failure and all our callers error out it makes no sense to continue
    parsing mbs.
    
    As we allocate `len` wchars at the beginning and each wchar has
    at least one byte, there will never be need to grow the buffer,
    so the code can be left out. On the other hand, we are always
    allocatng more memory than we need.
    
    As long as wcs_length == mbs_length == len we can omit wcs_length.
    We keep the old code commented if we decide to save memory and
    use autoexpanding wcs_length in the future.
    
    Fixes #1276
