Subject: [PATCH] wifi: rtw89: cap firmware section_num before parsing

rtw89_fw_bin_info.section_info has FWDL_SECTION_MAX_NUM (10) entries.
The v0/v1 header parsers take section_num from an 8-bit firmware field
(0..255) and write info->section_info[i] with no cap.
rtw89_fw_download_suit() keeps that object on the stack, so a crafted
firmware blob overflows the stack.

Reject a truncated header and a section table that does not fit in the
firmware image before reading fw_hdr->sections[i].
