buffer: avoid overrun on UCS-2 string write

CVE-2018-12115
Discovered by ChALkeR - Сковорода Никита Андреевич
Fix by Anna Henningsen

Writing to the second-to-last byte with UCS-2 encoding will cause a -1
length to be send to String::Write(), writing all of the provided Buffer
from that point and beyond.
