Upstream commit:

    awk: fix read beyond end of buffer
    Commit 7d06d6e18 (awk: fix printf %%) can cause awk printf to read
    beyond the end of a strduped buffer:

      2349      while (*f && *f != '%')
      2350          f++;
      2351      c = *++f;

    If the loop terminates because a NUL character is detected the
    character after the NUL is read.  This can result in failures
    depending on the value of that character.

    function                                             old     new   delta
    awk_printf                                           672     665      -7
