The divBasic function computes the quotient of big nats u/v word by word.
It estimates each word qhat by performing a long division (top 2 words of u
divided by top word of v), looks at the next word to correct the estimate,
then perform a full multiplication (qhat*v) to catch any inaccuracy in the
estimate.
In the latter case, "negative" values appear temporarily and carries
must be carefully managed, and the recursive division refactoring
introduced a case where qhat*v has the same length as v, triggering an
out-of-bounds write in the case it happens when computing the top word
of the quotient.
Fixes #37501
