hw/display/sm501: Catch bad coordinates for RTL operations
The sm501 code doesn't check whether a right-to-left operation has
specified a width greater than the x-coordinate (which would make it
extend off the left edge of the screen), or similarly a height
greater than the y-coordinate. This means the guest can misprogram
the device so that we underflow when calculating the address of the
top left pixel, which might result in accessing out of bounds
memory. Catch this as a guest error and ignore the operation.
