It's not about the size, it's about exercising all the various escape_*
helpers, to ensure that they all respect the end of the buffer, while
still returning the correct would-be output size. For that, one needs to
call string_escape_mem with various combinations of flags and input
buffers. The logic for that is already in place in test_string_escape
and its caller, and I see no point in duplicating all that.
If you insist on a separate function for doing the overflow testing,
I'll just rip it out from my code and let you add such a test later.
I've updated 2/3 with the early returns you suggested, but I'll wait a
little before sending out a v4.
