Text drops bad runs silently in:

setString: aString setRunsChecking: aRunArray
	...
	aRunArray size = aString size ifFalse: [^ aString asText].
	runs := aRunArray

This method is called from PositionableStream>>#nextChunkText but not 
from #nextChunkTextFromStream: methods of converter used by 
MultiByteFileStream.

Should these methods be changed to check runs? or should we catch the 
error in MultiByteStream>>#nextChunkText post conversion?
