Subject: mupdf: mujstest: strcpy-param-overlap in main (jstest_main.c)

A note outside the blog post:
This issue does not affect any library, but it is only in the mujstest binary.
There aren't known applications which use mujstest, but if you have an 
application or website which relies on mujstest you are invited to apply the 
patch or use the newer package when it will be released. Thanks.

Description:
Mujstest, which is part of mupdf is a scriptable tester for mupdf + js.

A fuzzing revealed a strcpy-param-overlap.

The complete ASan output:
