Null pointer dereference at cli/wvunpack.c

Hi, I found a null pointer dereference at cli/wvunpack.c:911

Here's ASAN log:
AddressSanitizer:DEADLYSIGNAL

==84257==ERROR: AddressSanitizer: SEGV on unknown address 0x000000000000 (pc 0x561b47a970c6 bp 0x7fff13952fb0 sp 0x7fff1394fca0 T0)

Hi, and thanks for reporting this. It's quite a catch!

I have pushed a fix for it. Please let me know if you run into any more.

BTW, I don't consider this to be particularly worrisome from a security standpoint. It requires the command-line program (which are not standard in any repo) and it requires both a crafted WavPack file and a crafted command line. Further, all it can cause is an exception (i.e., no code injection).

Nevertheless, I'm glad I was able to fix it before my imminent release!
