erofs_init_device() only reads blocks_lo and uniaddr_lo from the
on-disk device slot, ignoring blocks_hi and uniaddr_hi that were
introduced alongside the 48-bit block addressing feature.

For the primary device (dif0), erofs_read_superblock() already handles
this correctly by combining blocks_lo with blocks_hi when 48-bit
layout is enabled. But the same logic was not applied to extra
devices.

With a 48-bit EROFS image using extra devices whose uniaddr or blocks
exceed 32-bit range, the truncated values cause erofs_map_dev() to
compute wrong physical addresses, leading to silent data corruption.

Fix this by reading blocks_hi and uniaddr_hi in erofs_init_device()
when 48-bit layout is enabled, consistent with the primary device
handling. Also fix the erofs_deviceslot on-disk definition where
blocks_hi was incorrectly declared as __le32 instead of __le16.
