When parsing data, progress or error packets, we need to copy the
contents of the rest of the current packet line into the flex-array of
the parsed packet. To keep track of this array's length, we then assign
the remaining length of the packet line to the structure. We do have a
mismatch of types here, as the structure's `len` field is a signed
integer, while the length that we are assigning has type `size_t`.

On nearly all platforms, this shouldn't pose any problems at all. The
line length can at most be 16^4, as the line's length is being encoded
by exactly four hex digits. But on a platforms with 16 bit integers,
this assignment could cause an overflow. While such platforms will
probably only exist in the embedded ecosystem, we still want to avoid
this potential overflow. Thus, we now simply change the structure's
`len` member to be of type `size_t` to avoid any integer promotion.
