Dest buffer needs to be bigger for utf16_to_utf8()

These undocumented functions require the destination buffer to have the
worst case size.  However that size (previously listed as 3/2 * input)
is wrong for EBCDIC.  Correct the comments, and the single use of these
in core.

These functions do not have a way to avoid overflowing, which strikes me
as wrong.
