#13165: SCI: QFG1-JP crash on long messages with Japanese subtitles

------------------------------+-------------------------
 In QFG1 Japanese (PC-98), long messages crash due to out of bounds drawing
 that fails an assertion.

 Two messages have been found that do this. Both of them are death
 messages. Crash occurs when subtitles are enabled and language is set to
 English. That is, English is drawn above and Japanese is drawn below as
 the subtitle language. The input language doesn't affect this.

 Long messages that crash:

 - `open door` in room 321, upstairs door on the left
 - `kill guard` in room 38

 Sierra's interpreter didn't crash but it did render the text incorrectly.

 Thanks to DarkSoul for finding this and comparing with original behavior:
