hw/net/e1000e: recalculate rx_desc_len on migration load
rx_desc_len is migrated as a raw uint8_t from the stream, but it
is a derived value that can be computed from the register state
in core.mac[RFCTL] and core.mac[RCTL]. A crafted migration stream
can set rx_desc_len to an invalid value (e.g. 64), causing a stack
buffer overflow in e1000e_write_packet_to_guest() which copies
rx_desc_len bytes into a 32-byte stack union.
Recalculate rx_desc_len and other derived values from the register
state in post_load, ignoring the untrusted values from the stream.
