Subject: [PATCH] selftests/nolibc: avoid buffer underrun in space printing

If the test description is longer than the status alignment the
parameter 'n' to putcharn() would lead to a signed underflow that then
gets converted to a very large unsigned value.
This in turn leads out-of-bound writes in memset() crashing the
application.

The failure case of EXPECT_PTRER() used in "mmap_bad" exhibits this
exact behavior.

Fixes: 8a27526f49f9 ("selftests/nolibc: add EXPECT_PTREQ, EXPECT_PTRNE and EXPECT_PTRER")
