MakeBigReq: don't move the last word, already handled by Data32 (X.Org CVE-2013-7439).
MakeBigReq inserts a length field after the first 4 bytes of the request (after req->length), pushing everything else back by 4 bytes. The current memmove moves everything but the first 4 bytes back. If a request aligns to the end of the buffer pointer when MakeBigReq is invoked for that request, this runs over the buffer. Instead, we need to memmove minus the first 4 bytes (which aren't moved), minus the last 4 bytes (so we still align to the previous tail). The 4 bytes that fell out are already handled with Data32, which will handle the buffermax correctly. The case where req->length = 1 was already not functional.
