Subject: [PATCH] wc: stop processing --files0-from input after stdout write
 failure (#11023)

* fix(wc): stop processing after stdout write error

When wc encounters a write error to stdout (e.g., when stdout is redirected to /dev/full), it should stop processing immediately rather than continuing to process remaining files. This matches GNU wc behavior and prevents unnecessary processing after the output is already broken.

* fix(wc): improve error message matching in test_files0_stops_after_stdout_write_error
