lazymanifest: avoid reading uninitialized memory
I got errors running tests with clang UBSAN [1] enabled. One of them is:

```
While the code is not technically wrong, but switching the condition would
make clang UBSAN happy. So let's do it.
The uninitialized memory could come from, for example, `lazymanifest_copy`
allocates `self->maxlines` items but only writes the first `self->lines`
items.

Test Plan:
Run `test-dirstate.t` with UBSAN and it no longer reports the issue.
