Description of problem:
An issue was discovered in pspp 1.2.0. There is a buffer overflow at function text_parse_counted_string.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
pspp 1.2.0, pspp-dump-sav

How reproducible:


Steps to Reproduce:
1.compile pspp with asan
2.run 'pspp-dump-sav -data poc'


Actual results:
buffer overflow

Expected results:
trash it 

Additional info:
In Struct text_record, the pos of the buffer must be below it`s size.

```c
struct text_record
  {
    struct sfm_reader *reader;  /* Reader. */
    char *buffer;               /* Record contents. */
    size_t size;                /* Size of buffer. */
    size_t pos;                 /* Current position in buffer. */
  };
```

In function text_parse_counted_string,
'pos' > 'size'

```c
In file: /home/pwd/fuzz/fuzz-pspp/pspp-1.2.0/utilities/pspp-dump-sav.c
   1452   size_t start;
   1453   size_t n;
   1454   char *s;
   1455 
   1456   start = text->pos;
 ► 1457   n = 0;
   1458   while (isdigit ((unsigned char) text->buffer[text->pos]))
   1459     n = (n * 10) + (text->buffer[text->pos++] - '0');
   1460   if (start == text->pos)
   1461     {
   1462       sys_error (text->reader, "expecting digit at offset %zu in record",
/*
pwndbg> p *text
$1 = {
  reader = 0x7fffffffd520, 
  buffer = 0x607000000020 "VAR00001", 
  size = 71, 
  pos = 72
}
*/
```
