PatR cdc598e8bd fix pline.c potential buffer overruns ...

Fix 'Bugs 4, 5, and 6' which all use a similar fix but would have
conflicts over '#define BIGBUFSZ' if committed separately.

Format ("short explanation %s", string_argument), where the
explanation always has modest length but the string is potentially
up to 4*BUFSZ in length, into a 5*BUFSZ buffer.  Then truncate the
result to at most BUFSZ-1 characters so that it can be safely passed
to interface-specific putstr() or raw_print().

Applies to pline(), raw_printf(), and config_error_add().  Also done
for impossible() although there's no evidence that its buffer could
be overflowed in a controlled manner.
