Test file demonstating crash

When matching unicode properties PCRE 8.12 will sometimes backtrack past the
beginning of the subject string, causing invalid memory reads and/or crashes.

The attached file contains an example of one such match which can be fed to
pcretest to cause it to crash, or at least to report invalid accesses when run
under valgrind.
