scsi: core: bound the VPD page 0x83 designator walk
This commit fixes an out-of-bounds read in the VPD page 0x83 designator
walk by ensuring the designator length does not exceed the remaining bytes
in the page. It updates scsi_vpd_lun_id(), scsi_vpd_tpg_id(), and
sd_get_unique_id() to bound each iteration.

[Severity: High]
This is a pre-existing issue, but can this code read out of bounds if the
designator payload length is less than 4?
In scsi_vpd_tpg_id(), the switch statement unconditionally reads d[6] and d[7]
via get_unaligned_be16 without verifying that the designator length (d[3]) is
at least 4.
If a device or untrusted hypervisor backend provides a VPD page 0x83 containing
a designator with type 0x4 or 0x5 and a declared length (d[3]) of less than 4,
and this designator is positioned at the very end of the buffer, could the
fixed-offset read at &d[6] access memory out of bounds?
