HID: asus: size feature reports from the HID report descriptor

This commit derives feature report transfer lengths dynamically from the
device's HID report descriptor instead of using hardcoded sizes. It adds
asus_report_len() and asus_kbd_get_report(), updates asus_kbd_set_report() to
zero-pad short payloads to the report length, and converts callers to size
their buffers per report.

[Severity: High]
Can this read past the end of readbuf[] when a device descriptor declares a
6-byte feature report for report_id?

Previously, asus_kbd_get_functions() in drivers/hid/hid-asus.c allocated
readbuf with FEATURE_KBD_REPORT_SIZE (64 bytes). With this change, readbuf is
allocated with size hw_len.

In asus_kbd_get_functions(), sizeof(buf) is 6, so asus_kbd_set_report()
accepts hw_len == 6 via:

    if (!hw_len || buf_size > hw_len)
        return -EINVAL;

asus_kbd_get_functions() then only checks !hw_len before allocating readbuf of
6 bytes and reading readbuf[6] (the 7th byte), resulting in a 1-byte slab
out-of-bounds read during probe via
asus_probe()->asus_kbd_register_leds()->asus_kbd_get_functions().

Should asus_kbd_get_functions() check that hw_len is at least 7 (or
hw_len <= 6) before allocating readbuf and indexing readbuf[6]?
