fix buffer overflow when handling long composed input
To reproduce the issue:
"
If you already have the multi-key enabled on your system, then add this line
to your ~/.XCompose file:
[...]
<question> <T> <E> <S> <T> <question> :
"1234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890"
"
Reported by and an initial patch by Andy Gozas <andy@gozas.me>, thanks!
Adapted the patch, for now st (like dmenu) handles a fixed amount of composed
characters, or otherwise ignores it. This is done for simplicity sake.
