Size the dump buffer of a small value by its own extent

The source extent of a value was read from the next node, falling back to the rest of the document when that node held a decoded string. dump() of a small value could thus allocate a buffer as large as the document. Skip a few such nodes, cap the fallback estimate, and shrink a buffer that is much larger than its output.
