This is a series of LLM-scan-inspired fixes to the built-in blkid in
e2fsprogs. This has been lightly tested against trivial ntfs and exfat
images with labels, to ensure they are still properly read.

attr->len is a __u32, so use blkid_le32(), and change attr_len (to which
it is assigned) to an unsigned int as well.

Ensure that the attribute length itself is valid, and that it does not
extend past the mft_record_size, which would result in OOB reads past
the mft buffer.

For tidiness, move attr_off advance to end of the loop.

A corrupted or invalid label->length in an exfat filesystem may cause
probing to read past the end of label->name. Limit it in the same manner
as util-linux uses, and add a min() macro here to match.
