migration/rdma: Sanity check RDMA_CONTROL_REGISTER_REQUEST on buflen
RDMA header supports head.repeat on RDMA_CONTROL_REGISTER_REQUEST, which
can include >1 memory registrations. The current code did check over
head.repeat to guard against RDMA_CONTROL_MAX_COMMANDS_PER_MESSAGE, however
it didn't further check the buffer size (head.len) to make sure the
received data is large enough to include the repeated entries. Check it.
This is almost only to harden this piece of code, in reality on source side
QEMU never uses repeat>1.. However since it's a protocol, still keep it.
Check the buffer size instead.
In case it's not obvious to new RDMA readers: head.len should be the size
RDMA has last received, as qemu_rdma_exchange_get_response() checked on it
against byte_len (which was further fetched from ibv_wc.byte_len in
qemu_rdma_poll()).
