From: Benoît Sevens <bsevens@google.com>

A heap buffer overflow can occur in the mcp2221_raw_event() function
when handling I2C read responses. The driver failed to check if the
total incoming data length fits within the originally allocated buffer
`mcp->rxbuf`.

Fix this by introducing `rxbuf_len` to `struct mcp2221` to keep track
of the allocated buffer size. Initialize it in `mcp_i2c_smbus_read()`
and `mcp_smbus_xfer()`, and ensure the copied data length combined with
the current index does not exceed this length in `mcp2221_raw_event()`.
