[PATCH v2] greybus: operation: fix out-of-bounds write in message allocation

[Adriano Cordova]

The incoming message size from the device header (header.size) is
trusted without checking that it is at least the size of the message
header itself, but a value smaller than sizeof(struct gb_operation_msg_hdr)
underflows request_size in gb_operation_create_incoming(), wraps around
in gb_operation_message_alloc(), and results in a tiny buffer that is
then written past its end in gb_operation_message_init().

Reject undersized messages before parsing the message header.
