GHSA-2v8p-3f2j-5mp7 Mermaid XY Charts are vulnerable to an infinite loop DoS

• npm mermaid: >= 10.6.0, < 10.9.8 → fixed in 10.9.8 • npm mermaid: >= 11.0.0-alpha.1, < 11.16.1 → fixed in 11.16.1

Impact Mermaid XY Charts are vulnerable to an infinite loop DoS attack in the `setXAxisRangeData()`, when configuring an X-Axis with invalid parameters. As each loop appends an element to an array, this would generally only cause an `RangeError: Invalid array length` to appear after a few seconds, but may cause the page/JavaScript process to crash due to memory exhaustion, depending on the environment.
