Subject: [PATCH] fix: off-by-one heap buffer overflow in st_serial_stack
growth check
When st_serial_stackptr == st_serial_stacksize - 1, the old check
(stackptr >= stacksize) would not trigger reallocation. The subsequent
++stackptr then writes at index stacksize, one element past the
allocated buffer.
Fix by checking stackptr + 1 >= stacksize so the buffer is grown
before the pre-increment write.
Add a deep nesting test (600 levels) to exercise this code path.
Fixes #39
