Avoid integer overflow and buffer overrun in hstore_to_json().

This back-patches commit 0c5783ff301ae3e470000c918bfc2395129de4c5 into the
9.3 branch.  At the time, Heikki just thought he was fixing an unlikely
integer-overflow scenario, but in point of fact the original coding was
hopelessly broken: it supposed that escape_json never enlarges the data
more than 2X, which is wrong on its face.  The revised code eliminates
making any a-priori assumptions about the output length.

Per report from Saul Costa.  The bogus code doesn't exist before 9.3,
so no other branches need fixing.

Branch

REL9_3_STABLE
