But the locked narrowing is applied based on the presence of long-lines
rather than based on the total size of the buffer.

I think we'll want to decouple the two because they aren't quite the
same (e.g. in many cases the time taken by `syntax-ppss` doesn't depend
on the length of lines, whereas the time taken by `font-lock-keywords`
rues does not depend on the total buffer size).
