Commit message: Fix integer overflow in STRALGO LCS (CVE-2021-29477)

An integer overflow bug in Redis version 6.0 or newer could be exploited using
the STRALGO LCS command to corrupt the heap and potentially result with remote
code execution.

(cherry picked from commit f0c5f920d0f88bd8aa376a2c05af4902789d1ef9)
CVE: CVE-2021-29477
CWE: CWE-190
Vulnerability description: Redis is an open source (BSD licensed), in-memory data structure store, used as a database, cache, and message broker. An integer overflow bug in Redis version 6.0 or newer could be exploited using the `STRALGO LCS` command to corrupt the heap and potentially result with remote code execution. The problem is fixed in version 6.2.3 and 6.0.13. An additional workaround to mitigate the problem without patching the redis-server executable is to use ACL configuration to prevent clients from using the `STRALGO LCS` command.
