[bootstrap-O1] enlarge sprintf output buffer to avoid warning

In stage2 of bootstrap-O1, the code that warns if sprintf might
overflow its output buffer cannot tell that an unsigned value narrowed
to 16 bits will fit in 4 bytes with %4x.

I couldn't find a better way to avoid the warning at -O1 than growing
the buffer so that there's no doubt the output will fit.

Regstrapped on x86_64-linux-gnu and i686-linux-gnu.  Ok to install?

for  gcc/c-family/ChangeLog

	* c-pretty-print.c (pp_c_tree_decl_identifier): Grow static
	buffer to avoid false-positive warning.
