gh-130567: fix strxfrm memory allocation

The posix specification does not define that wcsxfrm should return
needed buffer size, it just says:

If the value returned is n or more, the contents of the array pointed to
by ws1 are unspecified.

Therefore double the allocation when the original call has failed. It
might also make sense to increase the allocation repeatedly, but that
would make the code more complex.
