This corrects an off-by-one error in decoy selection that would never select immediately-spendable outputs, and so immediately spending an output would reveal the true output in question. From Monero, PR 8794. The infinite loop quoted here is *also* something that I encountered, though only in regression testing (which uses a fake, sparse chain).
