/* We test the sprintf pattern used in littlefs2.c by calling it through
a simulated path construction that mirrors the vulnerable code.
Since the actual functions in littlefs2.c are static/internal and require
a full filesystem context, we directly test the buffer overflow condition
by including the file and exercising the path construction logic. */
