4Subject: commands/menuentry: Fix quoting in setparams_prefix()
5
6Commit 9acdcbf32542 (use single quotes in menuentry setparams command)
7says that expressing a quoted single quote will require 3 characters. It
8actually requires (and always did require!) 4 characters:
9
10 str: a'b => a'\''b
11 len: 3 => 6 (2 for the letters + 4 for the quote)
12
13This leads to not allocating enough memory and thus out of bounds writes
14that have been observed to cause heap corruption.
15
16Allocate 4 bytes for each single quote.
17
18Commit 22e7dbb2bb81 (Fix quoting in legacy parser.) does the same
19quoting, but it adds 3 as extra overhead on top of the single byte that
20the quote already needs. So it's correct.

23Fixes: CVE-2021-20233
