Fix incorrect size comparison in lexer_consume_n

The buffer length len and the requested number of tokens n are mixed up
in an invalid comparison. This causes all valid requests for n < len
tokens to be denied and all invalid requests for n > len tokens to be
accepted. This may cause a buffer overflow if the caller requests more
characters than they provide space for.
