Add an assertion to make sure that the 'len' variable is at least 1, to make sure that the code '--len' below is safe.

Fix the Coverity issue on Python-3.12.2:

Error: INTEGER_OVERFLOW (CWE-190):
Parser/string_parser.c:236:5: underflow: The decrement operator on
the unsigned variable "len" might result in an underflow.
Parser/string_parser.c:246:9: overflow: The expression "len -= 2UL"
is deemed underflowed because at least one of its arguments has
underflowed.
Parser/string_parser.c:269:13: overflow_sink: "len", which might
have underflowed, is passed to
"PyBytes_FromStringAndSize(s, len)".
267| }
268| if (rawmode) {
269|-> return PyBytes_FromStringAndSize(s, len);
270| }
271| return decode_bytes_with_escapes(p, s, len, t);
