We met a parameter truncated issue, consider following:
> echo "|/root/core_pattern_pipe_test %p /usr/libexec/blah-blah-blah \
%s %c %p %u %g %t 11 1234567890123456789012345678901234567890" > \
/proc/sys/kernel/core_pattern

This is okay because the strings is less than CORENAME_MAX_SIZE.
"cat /proc/sys/kernel/core_pattern" shows the whole string. but
after we run core_pattern_pipe_test in man page, we found last
parameter was truncated like below:
argc[10]=<12345678901234567890123456789012345678>

The root cause is core_pattern allows % specifiers, which need to be
replaced during parse time, but the replace may expand the strings
to larger than CORENAME_MAX_SIZE.

This patch expands the size of parsing array, and makes the cursor
out_end shift when we replace % specifiers.
