Script: buffer overrun protection.

With this change, all script copy operations now check if there is
enough room in the buffer.  To do so, the script engine now provides the
e->end pointer, which specifies expected buffer end, and each copy
operation is checked against it with the ngx_http_script_check_length()
function.

The e->end pointer is optional and only checked when set, thus
introducing no incompatible API changes.  All standard functions were
updated to use it, notably ngx_http_complex_value(), ngx_http_script_run(),
ngx_http_script_regex_start_code(), ngx_http_script_complex_value_code().
Direct script evaluation in the proxy, fastcgi, scgi, uwsgi, grpc proxy,
index, and try_files modules will be updated by a separate patch.

In particular, this catches issues as observed when evaluating variables
with side effects, such as in the following configuration:

    map $uri $map {
        ~(?<capture>.*) $capture;
    }

    set $capture "";
    set $temp "$capture $map";

As well as when evaluating non-cacheable variables, where length of a
variable might change between length and copy codes, such as in the
following configuration:

    map prefix:$capture $map_volatile {
        volatile;
        ~(?<capture>.*) $capture;
    }

    set $capture "";
    set $temp "$map_volatile";

Similar changes were made in the stream module.
