Hello!
A private method Pattern. RemoveQEQuoting() contains calculation of an
array size, which can result in numeric overflow, and cause a confusing
NegativeArraySizeException.
Would you please help review the fix?
Please note, that expressions `j + 2` and `pLen - i` cannot overflow
(because j is the index of a substring "\Q", and i is an index < pLen),
so they are not wrapped with exactXXX() methods.
