Prevent mppe_decompress() from generating "osize too small" errors when checking
for output buffer size. When receiving a packet of mru size the output buffer
for decrypted data is 1 byte too small since mppe_decompress() tries to account
for possible PFC, however later in code it is assumed no PFC.

Adjusting the check prevented there errors from occurring.
