hw/i2c/microbit_i2c: Don't index off end of twi_read_sequence[]
If the guest tries to read more bytes from our fake stub I2C device
than we have provided, we incorrectly read one byte beyond the end of
this array. Avoid this, and instead keep reporting the RXD register
as containing the last byte of the "data transfer".
