The unscrutinized value may be incorrectly assumed to be within a certain
range by later operations.

In vhost_user_read: An unscrutinized value from an untrusted source used
in a trusted context - the value of sz_payload may be harmfull and we need
limit them to the max value of payload.

Fixes: 6a84c37e3975 ("net/virtio-user: add vhost-user adapter layer")
