[jira] [Work logged] (IO-764) Unable to Write Big Strings Using IOUtils

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IO-764?focusedWorklogId=752177&page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:worklog-tabpanel#worklog-752177 ]

      Work Description: DaGeRe opened a new pull request, #343:
URL: https://github.com/apache/commons-io/pull/343

   If Strings with a certain size are written to a stream, this fails with an exception on OpenJDK 11. 
   
   ```
   java.lang.NegativeArraySizeException: -1283060862
   at java.base/java.lang.StringCoding.encodeUTF8(StringCoding.java:904)
   at java.base/java.lang.StringCoding.encode(StringCoding.java:449)
   at java.base/java.lang.String.getBytes(String.java:964)
   at org.apache.commons.io.IOUtils.write(IOUtils.java:3251)
   at org.apache.commons.io.FileUtils.writeStringToFile(FileUtils.java:3541)
   at org.apache.commons.io.FileUtils.writeStringToFile(FileUtils.java:3524)
   ```
   
   This PR fixes the problem by using a `ByteBuffer` instead `getBytes`. 
   
   Unfortunately, this increases test time significantly. One workaround would be to disable the test and only enable it if needed - but testing whether big Strings can be written is not possible without handling such a big string.

> at org.apache.commons.io.FileUtils.writeStringToFile(FileUtils.java:3524){code}
> The reason for this is that getBytes does not support Strings with this size. This should be fixed.
