[PATCH 1/1] mingw: fix possible buffer overrun when calling `GetUserNameW()`

[Johannes Schindelin via GitGitGadget]

From: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schinde...@gmx.de>

In 39a98e9b68b8 (mingw: get pw_name in UTF-8 format, 2019-06-27), this
developer missed the fact that the `GetUserNameW()` function takes the
number of characters as `len` parameter, not the number of bytes.
