Fix the following vulnerability:
- CVE-2025-46728
cpp-httplib is a C++ header-only HTTP/HTTPS server and client library.
Prior to version 0.20.1, the library fails to enforce configured size
limits on incoming request bodies when `Transfer-Encoding: chunked` is
used or when no `Content-Length` header is provided. A remote attacker
can send a chunked request without the terminating zero-length chunk,
causing uncontrolled memory allocation on the server. This leads to
potential exhaustion of system memory and results in a server crash or
unresponsiveness. Version 0.20.1 fixes the issue by enforcing limits
during parsing. If the limit is exceeded at any point during reading,
the connection is terminated immediately. A short-term workaround
through a Reverse Proxy is available. If updating the library
immediately is not feasible, deploy a reverse proxy (e.g., Nginx,
HAProxy) in front of the `cpp-httplib` application. Configure the
proxy to enforce maximum request body size limits, thereby stopping
excessively large requests before they reach the vulnerable library
code.

Subject: [PATCH] Merge commit from fork

|
|
* fix(parser): Limit line length in getline
|
|
|
|
Prevents potential infinite loop and memory exhaustion in
|
|
stream_line_reader::getline by enforcing max line length.

|
|
|
|
* fix: increase default max line length to 32k
|
|
|
|
LONG_QUERY_VALUE test is set at 25k.

* test(client): expect read error with too long query
|
|
|
|
Adds a test case (`TooLongQueryValue`) to verify client behavior
|
|
when the request URI is excessively long, exceeding
|
|
`CPPHTTPLIB_MAX_LINE_LENGTH`. In this scenario, the server is
|
|
expected to reset the connection.
