split: fix memory corruption during chunk extraction
ASAN reported this error for: split -n2/3 /dev/null ERROR: AddressSanitizer: negative-size-param: (size=-1) #0 0x7f0d4c36951d in __asan_memmove (/lib64/libasan.so.2+0x8d51d) #1 0x404e06 in memmove /usr/include/bits/string3.h:59 #2 0x404e06 in bytes_chunk_extract src/split.c:988 #3 0x404e06 in main src/split.c:1626 Specifically there would be invalid memory access and subsequent processing if the chunk to be extracted was beyond the initial amount read from file (which is currently capped at 128KiB). This issue is not in a released version, only being introduced in commit v8.25-4-g62e7af0 * src/split.c (bytes_chunk_extract): The initial_read != SIZE_MAX should have been combined with && rather than ||, but also this condition is always true in this function so remove entirely. * tests/split/b-chunk.sh: Add a test case. Fixes http://bugs.gnu.org/25003
