ash: fix use-after-free in pattern substituon code

Patch by soeren@soeren-tempel.net

The idx variable points to a value in the stack string (as managed
by STPUTC). STPUTC may resize this stack string via realloc(3). If
this happens, the idx pointer needs to be updated. Otherwise,
dereferencing idx may result in a use-after free.
