8289049: x86_32 build fails with GCC 11 due to newString646_US warning

[shipilev]

See bug report for reproducer and error message. The warning looks quite superficial, and I initially suspected that it complains about int len = (int)strlen(str) cast of size_t. But what is confusing is nearly the similar code in newStringCp1252 apparently does not produce the warning: https://github.com/openjdk/jdk/blob/f5d1b5bda27c798347ae278cbf69725ed4be895c/src/java.base/share/native/libjava/jni_util.c#L533-L566

I propose we chalk it up to false/odd compiler warning and sync up unproblematic newStringCp1252 and newString646_US implementation to dodge it.

Additional testing:

• [x] Linux x86_32 build with GCC 11
• [x] Linux x86_32 tier1 test with GCC 9
• [x] Linux x86_64 tier1 test with GCC 9

Thank you! Any other comments? I'll be integrating it soon otherwise.

I'm confused. How does adding EnsureCapacity in newString646_US fix the compiler warning mentioned in JBS?

I'm confused. How does adding EnsureCapacity in newString646_US fix the compiler warning mentioned in JBS?

I think this is a bona-fide compiler static analyzer bug. GCC 12 compiles this code fine. So, we have two options: a) disable the warnings for this code block; b) harmonize all code blocks to use the same style, which is also incidentally avoids the false warning. This PR does (b).

Okay, fair enough.
