Recurring patterns

The bug types that recur here, drawn from past fixes, not open vulnerabilities.

Integer Overflow: Silent truncation of the computed X11 request length field can lead to malformed protocol messages. Using `TryInto` ensures that lengths exceeding 16-bit bounds are caught and handled as errors rather than wrapping.
