SteamSmithandClaude Opus 5.5 f9d7aa72b6 control: cap line length before auth (#1653)
Follow-up to #1259. Before a connection authenticates, the control server
read request lines with BufRead::lines, which buffers a whole line before
anything looks at it, so a client that never sends `auth` could make it
buffer an arbitrarily long line.

Read lines with a bounded read instead. Until `auth` succeeds a line may be
at most MAX_AUTH_LINE (4 KiB; the auth request is about a hundred bytes);
a longer one gets a -32600 error and the connection is closed, after
reading at most MAX_AUTH_LINE + 1 bytes of it. After `auth`, lines are read
whole as before. End of stream, read errors and non-UTF-8 input end the
connection as they did with BufRead::lines.

Tests: lines_are_read_up_to_the_limit, an_overlong_line_before_auth_is_refused,
long_lines_after_auth_are_still_read.
