Bug#51738 Unit test pfs_instr-t crashes
The unit test pfs_instr-t: - generates a very long (10,000) bytes file name - calls find_or_create_file. This leads to a buffer overflow in mysys in my_realpath(), because my_realpath and mysys file APIs in general do not test for input parameters: mysys assumes every file name is less that FN_REFLEN in length. Calling find_or_create_file with a very long file name is likely to happen when instrumenting third party code that does not use mysys, so this test is legitimate. The fix is to make find_or_create_file in the performance schema more robust in this case.
