Subject: [PATCH] socks: return error if hostname too long for remote resolve

Prior to this change the state machine attempted to change the remote
resolve to a local resolve if the hostname was longer than 255
characters. Unfortunately that did not work as intended and caused a
security issue.

This patch applies to curl versions 7.81.0 - 7.86.0. Other versions
that are affected take a different patch. Refer to the CVE advisory
for more information.
