ct_sip_parse_transport() compares the value of the "transport=" header
parameter against "TCP"/"UDP" with strncasecmp(..., 3), but it never
checks that the parsed value is at least 3 bytes long.

ct_sip_parse_param() returns matchlen = end - start, where end is the
next ';' or, when there is no ';', the end of the payload buffer
(limit = dptr + datalen).  If the "transport=" value is only 1 or 2
bytes long and runs exactly to the end of the payload (e.g. a REGISTER
request whose Contact header ends in ";transport=T" with no trailing
CRLF), matchlen is less than 3 while strncasecmp() still reads up to 3
bytes, reading 1-2 bytes past the end of the linearized skb data.

Add a matchlen check before the comparison, mirroring the
sdp_media_type() pattern a few lines below, so short values cannot reach
strncasecmp().
