[PATCH] fs/ntfs3: reserve NUL byte when converting UTF-16 names

[Kyle Zeng <kylebot@openai.com>]

ntfs_utf16_to_nls() appends a trailing NUL to the converted output,
but it passes the caller-supplied size directly to the conversion loop.
For the UTF-8 path, utf16s_to_utf8s() can legitimately fill all
buf_len bytes and return buf_len, after which ntfs_utf16_to_nls()
writes the terminator one byte past the end of the destination buffer.

The same contract problem exists for the NLS path when a converted
character consumes the last available byte.

Reserve one byte for the terminator before doing either conversion.
The function continues to return the number of converted bytes,
excluding the NUL terminator.
