Mickaël Salaün 3125751cd1 landlock: Bound escaped trace path output
Filesystem paths may expand fourfold when trace text escapes spaces and
other untrusted bytes.  A sufficiently long representation can exhaust
the shared scratch sequence.  A sibling __print_flags() helper may then
return an unterminated one-past pointer because TP_printk() argument
ordering is unspecified.

Use a fixed budget rather than the scratch space available at call time,
so output does not vary with sibling evaluation order.  Limit an
untrusted string to three quarters of the trace sequence, leaving the
rest for sibling helpers and final event metadata.  Compute and commit
complete escaped output transactionally so an exact fill cannot consume
the terminating NUL or poison the scratch sequence.

For strings that exceed the limit, retain the largest prefix ending at a
complete escape unit, then append a raw UTF-8 ellipsis.  Keep the
helper's existing octal fallback so complete values remain unchanged.
Hex fallback would consume the same four bytes per escaped byte without
increasing the prefix or strengthening the marker.  ESCAPE_NAP renders
every non-ASCII input byte in octal, so legitimate data cannot reproduce
the marker without being escaped.
