Various Squashfs Issues

[Richard Weinberger <richard@sigma-star.at>]

Hi!

While inspecting the squashfs implementation of Barebox I noticed
some issues and was able trigger heap corruptions using crafted filesystems.

e.g.
==30712==ERROR: AddressSanitizer: heap-buffer-overflow on address 0x7f07bdaff800 at pc 0x0000004af3e2 bp 0x7ffdf8374a40 sp 0x7ffdf8374a38

While implementing fixes for them I realized that these are all known
and fixed in Linux.

I suggest backporting at least these Linux fixes for squashfs:

01cfb7937a9af ("squashfs: be more careful about metadata corruption")
d512584780d3e ("squashfs: more metadata hardening")
cdbb65c4c7ead ("squashfs metadata 2: electric boogaloo")
71755ee5350b6 ("squashfs: more metadata hardening")
a3f94cb99a854 ("Squashfs: Compute expected length from inode size rather than block length")

Thanks,
