hw/display/qxl: validate monitors_config heads[] in phys2virt
The qxl_phys2virt() call for guest_monitors_config only validates
sizeof(QXLMonitorsConfig), which covers the fixed header (count and
max_allowed) since commit 8efec0ef8bbc ("hw/display/qxl: Pass requested
buffer size to qxl_phys2virt()"), but not the flexible array member
heads[]. When count == 1, heads[0] is accessed without its memory being
validated, allowing a guest to cause an out-of-bounds read.
Include sizeof(QXLHead) in the size passed to qxl_phys2virt() so that
the first head entry is validated within the guest memory slot, preventing
guest-visible memory reading.
