increase TTY_NAME_MAX limit to 32

the old value of 20 was reported by Laurent Bercot as being
insufficient for a reasonable real-world usage case. actual problem
was the internal buffer used by ttyname(), but the implementation of
ttyname uses TTY_NAME_MAX, and for consistency it's best to increase
both. the new value is aligned with glibc.
