linelog: fix infinite loop vulnerability

Checking `len(lines)` is not a great way of detecting infinite loops, as
demonstrated in the added test. Therefore check instruction count instead.

The original C implementation does not have this problem. There are a few
other places where the C implementation enforces more strictly, like
`a1 <= a2`, `b1 <= b2`, `rev > 0`. But they are optional.

Test Plan:
Add a test. The old code forces the test to time out.
