Fix bug #12867 with crashes due to large field width in mode-line format.

 src/xdisp.c (decode_mode_spec): Limit the value of WIDTH argument
 passed to pint2str and pint2hrstr to be at most the size of the
 frame's decode_mode_spec_buffer.  This avoids crashes with very
 large values of FIELD_WIDTH argument to decode_mode_spec.
