    Prevent hanging in next-single-char-property-change
    
    * src/textprop.c (Fnext_single_char_property_change): Clarify in
    the doc string the behavior when LIMIT is past the end of OBJECT.
    Stop the search when position gets to end of buffer, for when LIMIT
    is beyond that.  (Bug#40000)
