bug#61704: 29.0.60; Crash in get_narrowed_begv

The cause is an arithmetic trap in get_narrowed_begv:

return max ((pos / len - 1) * len, BEGV);

where len is 0. The window was previously being resized, and has a pixel width of 24.


How can len possibly be 0 at that point? It is (in short) window_body_width (w, WINDOW_BODY_IN_CANONICAL_CHARS) * window_body_height (w, WINDOW_BODY_IN_CANONICAL_CHARS). We could add a condition in get_narrowed_len to return 1 when the result is 0, but it could be a bug somewhere else (can a window body have a zero width and/or height?), in which case it would be better to fix the bug there.
