[BUG]
A corrupt OCFS2 xattr entry can set OCFS2_XATTR_ENTRY_LOCAL while
keeping xe_value_size larger than OCFS2_XATTR_INLINE_SIZE.

Once that entry reaches namevalue_size_xe(), the filesystem trips over:

[CAUSE]
namevalue_size_xe() assumes on-disk xattr entries keep the local flag
and value size consistent, but OCFS2 does not reject an entry that
claims local storage for a value larger than the inline limit before
handing that entry to namevalue_size_xe().

The exact-match lookup path can return such an entry through xs->here,
and bucket defragmentation and splitting can also walk the corrupt entry
directly while reorganizing metadata.

[FIX]
Add a small validator for the local/value_size invariant and call it in
the paths that feed disk entries to namevalue_size_xe(): exact-match
lookup, bucket lookup results, bucket defragmentation, and bucket
splitting.

Corrupt metadata is now reported with ocfs2_error() and -EFSCORRUPTED
instead of crashing the kernel with BUG_ON().

No Fixes tag was added because this is more like a defensive check
that is long overdue, not a regression that can be clearly attributed
to a specific introduction commit.
